As time goes by And your words die The pain that remains Is all I can save, is all I own Before too long I will know Another life just gone Letting go, so hard to say And I wish that you could stay As I return, my heart must yearn For time, ease my mind, move on Realise I can't stop time And your tears they show All the things I already know As I watch you drift away And the light begins to fade I tried to show Who I am, I just don't know And I wish you could have stayed As the light began to fade
