lyrics

So many years have come and gone
But it’s not yet the final act
There are still more melodramas to come
If I could live forward
Instead of falling back
Then maybe this time would be my own

But I’m still clinging to
The memories of you
And I can’t move on
And I’m still clinging to
The memories of you

I keep making plans
That are written in the sand
Walked over by my own footprints
I’m old and I’m wise
But I’m still terrified
That this life is not my own to live

Cause I’m still clinging to
The memories of you
And I can’t move on
And I’m still clinging to
The memories of you

And I don’t want to say goodbye
But now is the time
And I don’t want to say goodbye
But now is the time
And I don’t want to say goodbye
But now is the time
And I don’t want to say goodbye
But now is your time
Now is my time
Now is our time
