The only
way I can see your face
Is through
a photograph now
Even those
faint glimpses
Can’t
satisfy somehow
Time has
grown on us
And wore
you thin
Now I’m
all that left
Of our
true love’s sin
How can
time move so quickly?
When all
you want it to do is stop
How can I
pack away our memories?
Without a
second thought
As I step
on the gas to drive away
From this
town where I once loved you
I remember
what you used to say,
“Sometimes
I wish that we were older
So we
could lie awake at night
Just
staring at each other
Pretending
everything’s all right
But even
when we’re older
Nothing
will want to work our way
So we’ll
have to save this love
For
another day.”
I drive
down the highway
Just like
the picture in my mind
Would play
when you talked about
Leaving
this place behind
But
everything is mixed up
Cause I am
older nowadays
And you’re
still the same
In my mind
your young face won’t fade away
How could
I have wanted us to grow older?
Now that I
know what time can bring
Why can’t
I make my heart move onward?
From your
funeral scene
Cause I
still hear you
Even now
that you’re gone
I hear
your voice still singing me your song
“Sometimes
I wish that we were older
So we
could lie awake at night
Just
staring at each other
Pretending
everything’s all right.
But even
when we’re older
Nothing
will want to work our way
So we’ll
have to save this love
For
another day.”
Is all
hope lost,
Now your
life’s come to end?
Is faith
just a myth?
And hope a
sin?
Now that
love’s fog has lifted
Can I
start my life again?
Sometimes I wish that we’d been older
So we
could lie awake at night
And
understand our failure
Of our
lost-cause of a fight
And now
that I am older
Nothing’s
going to work our way
So I’ll
carry my love for you
Till my dying day
