[Verse 1]
Time slips by and now I'm spinning
One big sigh a long time coming now
But soon we'll catch our planes and this tale's gonna end
And you won't wear those pearls when we do meet again
So short lived, this bright desire
Bit by bit we drew each other out
But now we'll catch our breath and our winter will end
Cause we won't be the same if we do meet again
[Chorus]
So live for the life that we build on our last night
Let's make a beautiful thing of a sad time
Nothing left to say our hands intertwining
Memories shine, I look in your eyes and you're
Crying diamonds, crying diamonds
Holding on forever, I'm holding on forever and ever
[Verse 2]
So content to be your friend, we'll
Keep in touch but go our separate ways
And soon you'll find someone and you'll do this again
And I'll do this again
[Chorus 3x]
