See them there, their heart's grown cold
Time has passed, just left them old
Neither talks, not a word to say
Time is cruel, what a price we pay
And can you tell the birds not to fly?
Oh no, oh no
You can't do that
All alone with their shattered dreams
Children left so long ago
Her eyes are sad, he doesn't care
What mattered most is forgotten now
And can you tell the wind not to blow?
Oh no, oh no
You can't do that
And can you tell the sun not to shine?
Oh no, oh no
You can't do that
♪
They walk away, I think of you
So long ago, where are you now?
I held you near, and then you were gone
As seasons pass my heart grows cold
And can you tell me not to think of you?
Oh no, oh no
You can't do that
Can you tell me not to think of you?
Oh no, oh no
You can't do that
