Lyrics:

Memories, a summer breeze
I'm on the bus, almost getting home
Out on the street, Miami heat
I miss the smell of my dad's cologne

And it seems to me like a melody
My favorite song on the radio
When you know
Turn it back before it goes

My front door, the corner store
Climbing the tree in my old backyard
My mother's smile from ear to ear
When I got all A's on my report card

I can see them all when I close my eyes
It doesn't seem that long ago
When you know
You turn it back before it goes

Time is tickin' away, yeah
But it was just yesterday, yeah
Though it'll never be gone, yeah
We gotta live for today

Ice cream from the Dairy Queen
On the corner by the Orange Bowl
My grandma's voice always tellin' me
I'd understand when I was old

You can make mistakes, it'll be okay
But when you learn it's a pot o' gold
When you know
To turn it back before it goes

Time is tickin' away, yeah

Everything you live and you do
Becomes a part of you, so
You'll get back what you spread around

Everything you think and you say
Is gonna show up some way
So why not always take the higher ground

Time is tickin' away, yeah
(El tiempo pasa y no vuelve jam
