Do you have a photograph when you were still in high school?
Were you happy in it?
Little reason, lots of rhyme
Were you happy in it at the time?
Way back in your memory, do you recall the line
When your heart was in it
But then living changed your mind?
Did you love forever at the time?
Are you living here and now or in the moment′s past?
Is now tomorrow's memory and will the memory last?
How much of this will pass?
Is what you wanted long ago long gone from your mind?
Asks a ghost in dreaming or a friend you left behind
Keep them under pillows, leave your dreams down deep behind
Is what you wanted long ago long gone from your mind?
Asks a ghost in dreaming or a friend you left behind
The song that you once loved to sing is the one that makes you cry
And wouldn′t you just give it all if you never had to say goodbye?
We once lived in forever but we learned to say goodbye
Do you have a photograph when you were only growing?
And your heart was in it, but then living changed your mind
Did you love forever and then reason changed your mind?
When you have no limit but the years that changed your mind
Were you happy in it at the time?
Is what you wanted long ago long gone from your mind?
Asks a ghost in dreaming or a friend you left behind
The song that you once loved to sing is the one that makes you cry
And wouldn't you just give it all if you never had to say goodbye?
Goodbye
Tell me, is what you wanted long ago gone?
Asks a ghost in dreaming or a friend you left behind
The song that you once loved to sing is the one that makes you cry
And wouldn't you just give it all if you never had to say goodbye?
