Those days when our hearts were as big as the sun Turn around with a smile for everyone That feeling's a memory Funny how it fades away You won't see those pale grays returning to blues The colors will wash out as I shrink in my shoes And I won't always live and breathe Watch me as I fade away We wake in the morning and work all day We dress up in the evening with nothing to say Just like a candle burning bright Burning like forever then it fades away Who on this planet would ever refuse The chance of a lifetime to love and lose When time is of no importance Have you seen it slip away? We wake in the morning and work all day We dress up in the evening with nothing to say Just like a candle burning bright Burning like forever then it fades away We wake in the morning and work all day We dress up in the evening with nothing to say Just like a candle burning bright Burning like forever then it fades away
