Remember who we were, I know it has been so long. Take my memories with you And I might come along. So many miles to walk back on, Even the smiles will haunt. Wish I could tell you- There's so much more to this life, Than just our needs and wants. Hear me for the last time- All of my rights and wrongs. Wish I could sing to you- For every old man has a song.
Yesterday we were young- Now even tomorrow feels so old. Left so much unseen and unheard, Now there's nothing left but- An incomplete tale to be told. I still can't remember your face, So much to accept and be-hold. How is that you're still so beautiful, Even after watching so many springs- Die and be cold. Do they ever remind you of us, Back when we were whole. Wish you could tell me then- That love is meant to die for.
When does it all change, An old man has not a clue. And the time never waits, We all have to pay our dues. From the summer mornings- To the winter blues. The moments- Are so far and inbetween, In our hearts and few. There's not much left within- To hang onto something new And even when it lay all around me, All that mattered was you.
When the darkness held me- I heard myself whisper your name. Your face was all I could see- And I knew I was in love again. Like I've always been, I felt the same. An old mans dream- To be young once again. Like the last page of a book, That wants to be read once again. Only without the questions And the answers- I wish I could've changed. And when I'm gone- I'll know deep in my heart, That a story remains.
Embrace me for who I am And what I am, Will be yours to keep. I wish I could make you understand, When I'm gone - There's no need to weep. Look at me like you always did, For I'm just falling asleep. Kiss me for I'll need it, Before you leave.
Love me O' love me And I would happily be alone Kiss me O' kiss me And I might find my home.
