BROKEN strings of an ancient bass
MEMORIES shared of a hero long gone
Gentle giant, partner in crime
All alone I hear the sad song

He'll NEVER come back
The old man is dead
REPLACED by the new
Yet still he says

"I WILL always be there
Our TIME never was wasted
Don't LET my memory disappear with ME
Maybe in time things will GO BACK to the way they were"

Lock the sunshine in MY trunk
We're left alone on a DARK and winding road
Heed the CALL of the American soldier
We reap what you sow
Wednesday nights a distant THOUGHT
Unwritten songs are silent FOREVER
How can you live WITHOUT following your heart?
Can YOU still smile?

YOU'LL never come back
Cause you'll NEVER be the same
Time PASSed US up
The scars still remain
But you say

"I WILL always be there
Our TIME never was wasted
Don't LET my memory disappear with me
Maybe in time things will GO back to the way they were"

She denies your name
But you cannot changE
Inside you'll still be the sAme
ThRough the pain
And the haze of a new life
You'll still BE YOU

We will always be here
We know our time was never wasted
We wont forget you, the way you used to be
Maybe in time things will go back to the way they were...
