This song goes back about 5 or 6 years, reminiscing on love lost, and how time flies.
lyrics
Tired thoughts, wandering through the streets
Rain falls, cleanses all ‘crept for those aching feet
Many have I loved and lost, pain my companion, but
I cannot bend, to what you want my friend
Endless hours trying not to think of you
Careless summer, our dreams fallen through
The stream still flows never caring where it goes
But in time we fall, victim to it all, and
Where does the time go? Sped up and then it slows
When we break down, a moment can’t be found to
Make us whole, harmony remains our goal, but
It can’t be found, makes no sound
It can’t be found with no one around
You and me, we all we ever need to be
Our cards laid bare, we should never have cared
Endless hours trying not to think of you
It was a careless summer, our dreams fallen through, and\
Where does the time go? Sped up and then it slows
When we break down, a moment can’t be found to
Make us whole, harmony remains our goal, but
It can’t be found, makes no sound
It can’t be found with no one around
Pictures never mean that much till your old and can’t remember
The reason why you kissed goodbye, regardless of the ending
It’s paradise lost, no matter the cost
Like the shadow of a train, forever pulls away, and
Where does the time go? Sped up and then it slows
When we break down, a moment can’t be found to
Make us whole, harmony remains our goal, but
It can’t be found, makes no sound
It can’t be found with no one around X 2
