As all good things go
Can the ocean become empty
if once roaring and so alive?
How can stars be falling
if they’ve been so bright?
Like flames dying down
leaving only the memory of warmth behind
CHORUS:
Let’s drink from the laughter
Get drunk on pure peace
Living every minute
Get high on happiness
Tomorrow we’ll be closer
dying, as we near the end
I’m clawing at the seconds
precious moments going by
Past is claiming present
to vanish in cruel time
How can a smile be kept
if the clock won’t stop?
CHORUS
Oh, goodbye blue skies
Goodbye music and wine
As mortals we came short
on escaping racing time
So as the feelings fade
I’ll write before my heart forgets
CHORUS
Leaves will fall
Seasons change
Today became yesterday
And I’ll grow cold
towards what once was mine
And so it will be
as all good things go
CHORUS
