He stormed the shore and fought the war for you

He died for the great old U.S.A

And grandma had to raise my dad alone

Before she died I heard her say

Time has passed me by, because you know that

Generations fade

And little ones take our place

It's hard to understand

But it’s part of god's big plan

Cause generations fade

My parents sought the things they taught to me

They struggled through some hard times

And sincе that day their hairs' turned gray and I see

They’rе growin old before my eyes, and they say

Time is passin us by, because you know that

Generations fade

And little ones take our place

It's hard to understand

But it's part of god's big plan

And I think back how it used to be

So what's my life gonna turn out to be?

We have our time then we pass the flame

So we gotta do our best, cause generations fade

So here I am, a grown up man. But am I?

Inside I still feel the same

Now my wife, my kids, and I are here

So the cycle goes around again, and I say

Time now is passin me by, because you know that

Generations fade

And little ones take our place

It's hard to understand

But it's part of god's big plan

Generations fade
