Lyrics

[00:02.19] Time only time could never take me away from you
[00:08.87] And why should it try time never cares just what we do
[00:18.04] It just sits on a star and gazes down
[00:23.10] Dropping its moments all around
[00:27.23] And if I could wish upon that star
[00:32.10] I would find what you dream and then ask god to grant it
[00:36.41] I wanted to say this long before this dark would fall
[00:45.45] At night I would pray this then wonder if god heard at all
[00:54.69] For the chances I've had are now long gone
[00:59.74] And that star is no longer wished upon
[01:03.80] For on this night it seems too far away
[01:15.22] Try I have tried to pretend that I don't care
[01:24.27] But then sleep arrives and in every dream I find you there
[01:32.69] But I don't want the past to be my life
[01:37.24] And I don't want to live inside this night
[01:40.93] But I don't want to see your shadow fade
[01:46.17] So I sleep and I dream though I don't understand it
[01:52.41] I wanted to say this long before this dark would fall
[02:01.20] At night I would pray this then wonder if god heard at all
[02:10.00] For the chances I've had are now long gone
[02:14.68] And that star is no longer wished upon
[02:19.74] For on this night it seems too far away
[03:06.84] You can live your life in a thousand ways
[03:10.04] But it all comes down to that single day
[03:13.34] When you realize what you regret
[03:16.71] What you can't reclaim but you can't forget
[03:22.26] If I could just fall back into my life
[03:26.76] And find you there inside this night and let eternity just drift away
