Too good to last, how those four words ring in my ears. A voice from the past has been heard again, Whether it's real or not, I can't say I care But my memory's going and my mind is losing it's grip. I'm walking on thinning ice. Soon I shall be taken down, drowned in blind ignorance. Its hard to bear but harder still To tell the one I care for, Please to say love is here today, but it's going away, going away. How can I fight a fire that comes from inside myself That threatens a total end. So much to lose when I still had so much to learn. Its hard to bear but harder still To tell the one I care for. Please to say love is here today, but it's going away, going away. Millions of people won't know what I mean, None can appreciate somebody else's dream. Thousands of reasons for staying alive Explode into fragments, Dissolve into nothing. As I prepare for the oncoming night. Already I feel a creeping coldness chilling my bones, Dulling my sight and mind. Soon there shall be only sand where once water flowed. Nature dies and is reborn, but I shan't weather this coming storm. Not for me to die with children around my bed After a happy life, Though rain will fall and the sun won't change in it's course. Its hard to bear but harder still To tell the one I care for, Please to say love is here today, but it's going away, going away. Millions of people won't know what I mean, None can appreciate somebody else's dream. Thousands of reasons for staying alive Explode into fragments, Dissolve into nothing. As I prepare for the oncoming night.
