lyrics
My dear old man I wish I could save you.
As far as I can see I can’t even save me.
My dear old man I wish we’d live forever,
but time runs fast so make every second last.
We’re all here on borrowed time,
waiting for our decline.
No matter how hard I try and try,
eternity ends with
Now that you’re gone life should go on,
but time stands still when I sing your song.
When lights grow dim I got our love to remember,
I treasure it so, more than you know, more than you know.
We’re all here on borrowed time,
waiting for our decline.
No matter how hard I try and try,
eternity ends with
I still miss you always everyday,
I don’t think this will just go away,
but the memories they teach me better,
you live in my heart forever.
Always I’ll be a hopeless dreamer,
so I close my eyes and see you in the light of the night
and when I see you shadows become true,
hold very close what is given to you.
We’re all here on borrowed time,
waiting for our decline.
No matter how hard I try and try,
eternity ends with Y?
As far as I can see I can’t even save me.
My dear old man I wish we’d live forever,
but time runs fast so make every second last.
We’re all here on borrowed time,
waiting for our decline.
No matter how hard I try and try,
eternity ends with
Now that you’re gone life should go on,
but time stands still when I sing your song.
When lights grow dim I got our love to remember,
I treasure it so, more than you know, more than you know.
We’re all here on borrowed time,
waiting for our decline.
No matter how hard I try and try,
eternity ends with
I still miss you always everyday,
I don’t think this will just go away,
but the memories they teach me better,
you live in my heart forever.
Always I’ll be a hopeless dreamer,
so I close my eyes and see you in the light of the night
and when I see you shadows become true,
hold very close what is given to you.
We’re all here on borrowed time,
waiting for our decline.
No matter how hard I try and try,
eternity ends with Y?
