(mary applegate, roland grosch, bettina mischke) 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
