We try to stay young
By chasing the sun
You blink for to long
the swan sing a song
And all that I've lost
And all that I've won
Don't mean nothing more
When you open your eyes and they're gone
After all we've been told, we're still flesh and bone
And life's worth much more in silver and gold
And all that I've lost
And all that I've won
Don't mean nothing more
When you open your eyes and they're gone
And how could it be
That we'll never see
The first day of spring
And the last autumn leave?
So lost in my mind
I try to stay strong
If wounds heal in time
Tell me why it's so hard to move on
I'll never move ooooon
I'll curse the mistakes that we'll never make
The pictures of trip
That we'll never take
And all of these thoughts
They keep me awake
Hang on to your heroes before it's too late
Cause there'll come a time
When you open your eyes and they're gone
And I'll still be here chasing the sun...
