    Story Behind the Song
    I wrote this song for my parents. It was written will I was driving from San Jose to Mill Valley in the late 1980's.

    Lyrics
    It seems so long that you’ve been away
    And I think about you every day
    And still it doesn’t seem fair to me
    But I guess there are things that we don’t see

    Sometimes I loved you, sometimes not
    And I can’t always say I liked you a lot
    But I’d only like to give it one last shot
    To tell you what I thought

    But the world spins too fast sometimes
    Somebody must have put in too many dimes
    And sometimes time works like a drug
    But it’s so hard to pull the plug
    The world spins too fast sometimes
    Somebody must have put in too many dimes
    There’s a new light at the break of dawn
    And it leaves the strong to carry on

    In all the years that we’ve been apart
    I wonder how somebody with so big a heart
    Could go so fast in the middle of night
    But somehow we all thought you might
    I only wish that I had the time we didn’t spend
    So I could have gotten to know you as a friend
    But you were young when your life came to an end
    And I’ve got a message that I can’t send

    For the world spins too fast sometimes
    Somebody must have put in too many dimes
    And sometimes time works like a drug
    But it’s so hard to pull the plug
    The world spins too fast sometimes
    Somebody must have put in too many dimes
    There’s a new light at the break of dawn
    And it leaves the strong to carry on
