lyrics
Looking back at faded times
Simpler maybe but still sublime
Friends forgotten through passing years
From them now memories is all one hears
First romances last goodbyes
Bidding farewell through misty eyes
How we took it as if without care
You can always come back but you're not really there
How we all wish we could repeat
That time recalled so bittersweet
Spreading trees and well cut lawns
Minute details noticed most when they're gone
Relaxing, resting, surrounded by friends
Moments that would mean much more when they end
Once they're gone no one ever returns
Forgotten for a time and then it yearns
How we took it as if without care
You can always come back but you're not really there
How we all wish we could repeat
That time recalled so bittersweet
Simpler maybe but still sublime
Friends forgotten through passing years
From them now memories is all one hears
First romances last goodbyes
Bidding farewell through misty eyes
How we took it as if without care
You can always come back but you're not really there
How we all wish we could repeat
That time recalled so bittersweet
Spreading trees and well cut lawns
Minute details noticed most when they're gone
Relaxing, resting, surrounded by friends
Moments that would mean much more when they end
Once they're gone no one ever returns
Forgotten for a time and then it yearns
How we took it as if without care
You can always come back but you're not really there
How we all wish we could repeat
That time recalled so bittersweet
