Lyrics
To a friend of mine, I said my last goodbye. We were both lost in the tears of time. I wonder if he knew, what I've been going through, if he could read my mind.
But he was taken too soon. Never had the chance to say, all the words I could have said were left for another day. But that day has never come. Now all the time has run, like sand through a glass as fast as the setting sun. He was taken too soon...he was taken too soon.
