The feeling is sweeping me away
When you walked out the door
I told my friends a lie
I said I shed no tears
But all the time
You’re on my mind
And it’s been ten years
Time is always flowing
But nothing’s really fading
Only older - still carrying
Regrets on my shoulder
The feeling more familiar
I close my eyes...
And I see her
I know dreaming is not living
I’m breathing my life away
Giving my tomorrow
For a little yesterday
There’s a will
There’s a way
I will forget you some day
But right now
The feeling
Is sweeping
Me away
And things didn’t turn out
Like the plans I made
In love and life
They say it’s just that way
Time heals all wounds
But I only pine away
And late tonight I will retire
I know I will
Dreaming love survived
Wounded but alive
And it really doesn’t matter
Whether or not
Someone’s beside me
You were overkill
I know there’s a will!
I know there’s a way!
I will forget you some day!
But right now the feeling… is sweeping… me away
