"I let time go lightly when I'm here with you,

I let time go lightly when the day is through.

I keep a watch on time when I've have work to do,

I let time go lightly with you.

Morning, a time for breaking ground and sowing seeds,

and yet we give up our sunshine

so we can buy what we need.

That leaves the evening, to share a fire with a friend or two,

to lose sight of the hours

To go lightly with you

I let time go lightly when I'm here with you,

I let time go lightly when the day is through.

I keep a watch on time when I've got work to do,

I let time go lightly with you.

Old friends, they mean much more to me than the new friends,

Cause they can see where you are,

and they know where you've been.

Music, has been my oldest friend, my fiercest foe,

cause it can take me so high,

(High.....) Yes it can make me so low.

When I was a child my mother would help me along

She'd rock me to sleep and sing me a song.

So I learned to love the music of all the tunes in my mind

the changing of chords, the rhythm of time.

I let time go lightly when I'm here with you,

I let time go lightly when the day is through.

I keep a watch on time when I've got work to do,

I let time go lightly with you.

Yes I let time go lightly with you, and a fire, and a friend or two

With you and a fire and a friend or two

A friend or two and you"

I miss his music and his wisdom. Loved his music then and more so now because there will be no more.

Wow, how the mind remembers. As I listen to this song I can "hear" where the 8-track faded out....KA-CHUNK- and faded back in as it split over 2 tracks. What a great storyteller and musician. I sure do miss him.

I went to college with Tom, at Plattsburgh, and all 3 brothers spent a lot of time there singing in the college lounge...it was WONDERFUL!!!! I also rermember the time THE CHAPIN BROTHERS...along with father, Jim, played a sold out concert at Hawkins Hall, in Plattsburgh, in the middle 60s. Jim was an absolute incredible drummer as well.

Yes sung by Steve Chapin and also written by Steve Chapin, Harry's baby brother, musical director, piano player, songwriter, arranger and producer. Steve still tours with the original Harry Chapin Band as The Steve Chapin Band. Thanks for the correction

Wow, that's pretty extreme. I don't think he wanted anyone to go out & kill himself when he wrote it. It's normal to feel sad or melancholy, but don't waste your life for God's sake. If nothing else, go get involved & feed the needy like Harry C. dedicated himself to doing. But please don't waste it.

have a couple of wines and just sing to his music! My children and my granddaughter all know his music and I spread the word any chance I get! He was just so much "The Master Storyteller!" Peace all, Peter Arnone Jr

He was racing to a concert on Long Island when he was struck by an eighteen wheeler. The cause of the accident was due to the car's inability to accelerate at times and come up to speed. It was an older Volkswagen Rabbit he was driving and apparently it was a problem Volkswagen knew about but never did anything about. His wife Sandy sued Volkswagen and che news! To this day I have my Harry Chapin Hour at home where I
