Tighten your tie, boy You're something to die for But don't hold your breath now You're just killing time Tonight you can dream, boy Imagine a whisper If you can keep secrets Then I'll tell you mine Remember a promise You couldn't hold on to Though it brings me to tears now I need you to know Look in my eyes, boy Nothing like yours now It seems that a lifetime Is passing us by (So open your eyes) (This is forever but it won't last long) (This is a memory that fades away in neverending) (In the death of all that's long been said and done before) (We'll wish that we were something more) Stop wasting time, boy You're late all your life, boy They won't have the patience For someone like you Your memory's fading I'll love you forever I'll try to remember I'll try to hold on You're standing alone, boy Waiting for dreams, boy Waiting for something To make them come true Don't ever leave, boy I'd miss you too much, boy I'll never forget you As long as I'm here
