the moon is calling me tonight
 while shadows of the past
 are holding me so tight
 why have you gone so fast
 was there something more I could have done
 or was i not meant to be the one
 
 nothing really nothing lasts for long
 
 now here i’ am in the middle
 our kids are nearly grown
 we were wild in those old days
 but the prize was high i paid
 there is always one who walks away
 and always one who wants to stay
 
 nothing, nothing lasts for long
 
 another page is turned
 i wonder what i’ll find
 each day a lesson learned
 a moment held in time
 and if the story comes to an end
 i know I’ll do it all again
