At times he believed that everything
Happens for a reason
We would someday see things
Finally fall into place
Who knows what he's been through
To go from there
To the man who is too proud to complain
But thinks life has been unfair
As he feels the hands of time
Gently move him on
He might even like to stay for a while
But it won't be too long
Before it feels all wrong
He is caught off guard when he sees her
Waiting at the station
Considers just going by
But then waves a hand
"Oh god it's been so long,"
She says, "you haven't changed"
There is a moment of silence and then
The distant humming of a plane
As he feels the hands of time
Gently move him on
He might even like to stay for a while
But it won't be too long
Before it feels all wrong
He will be gone
Long gone
Before his heart belongs
To anyone
He will be gone
Before he stays too long
He will be gone
Long gone
Before his heart belongs
To anyone
He will be gone
Before he stays too long
He will be gone
