I spent years waiting for the time Never knowing that I couldn't say goodbye And now I'm left with all this guilt And now I'm left to burn this house we built The days get shorter As the sky gets darker The air grows colder As the distance grows further The days get shorter As the sky gets darker The air grows colder As the distance grows further I wish the time could pass And you would never change I wish that I could grow old And life would stay the same The solitude of youth Is the gift of my age The more the sand disappears The cleaner the next page I miss all that have passed The time had gone so fast But the gift was always you And the memories will last While I still have you here I just want you to know That I'm trying to change And I don't want to let you go I messed up so many years Because I never cared But now I'm here & now I'm prepared And now I'm prepared And now I'm prepared The solitude of youth Is the gift of my age The more the sand disappears The cleaner the next page I miss all that have passed The time had gone so fast But the gift was always you And the memories will last The solitude of youth Is the gift of my age The more the sand disappears The cleaner the next page I miss all that have passed The time had gone so fast But the gift was always you And the memories will last I don't want you to leave Just remember me I don't want you to go Just wait for me I don't want you to leave Just remember me I don't want you to go Just wait for me Just stay
