When We Were Young

When We Were Young

Have you ever seen... a falling star

As it streaks...across the sky

Among the heavens... in the night

Like a heartache...that passes by

I hear the sparrow... sing it's song

Did you know...they sing at night

I never knew... but tonight know true

For tonight...they comfort my side

My friends they say... as time it comes

I will pick up... and move on

But time for me... is eternity

As I carry... this heartache, my own

Have you ever seen... a falling star

As the heartache of memories... rip through your heart

Have you ever seen... a falling star

Like a heartache... of a falling heart

Tonight I know... I will survive

The sparrows... sing tonight

And I know... I must carry on

But can't help... this lonely night  

My friends... as they stop by

They say... as time it comes

But I am only... one heartache away

I wish time... would so hurry on.  

Do you see...what I've become

Do you see...what you have done

Only memories...is all that's left

Only memories....when we were young.

The mighty oak I see outside
