Can’t get it back
Can’t go forward
(or can you?)
Waits for no one
Will tell
Is of the essence
And time again
Is on my side
The song I thought thought of when I was pondering this prompt is Hazy Shade of Winter, The Bangles version:
Time, time, time
See what’s become of meTime, time, time
See what’s become of me
While I looked around for my possibilitiesI was so hard to please
Look around
Leaves are brown
And the sky is a hazy shade of winterHear the Salvation Army band
Down by the riverside
There’s bound to be a better ride
Than what you’ve got plannedCarry a cup in your hand
Look around
Leaves are brown
And the sky is a hazy shade of winterHang on to your hopes, my friend
That’s an easy thing to say
But if your hopes should pass away
Simply pretend that you can build them againLook around
The grass is high
The fields are ripe
It’s the springtime of my lifeSeasons change with the scenery
Weavin’ time in a tapestry
Won’t you stop and remember me?Look around
Leaves are brown
And the sky is a hazy shade of winterLook around
Leaves are brown
There’s a patch of snow on the groundLook around
Leaves are brown
There’s a patch of snow on the groundLook around
Leaves are brown
There’s a patch of snow on the groundSource: Musixmatch

Great post, Amy!
There’s always been something about the line “look around, leaves are brown. There’s a patch of snow on the ground“ that has always just stuck with me.
