Do you remember. Those hazy amber days. We were but children. Having the time of our lives. We had no regard, no respect. A floor was a bed. And a bed held the mysteries of life.
I keep old feelings locked. In the room below. Soft kisses. Stained wine glasses. And outside the snow. Broken windows. Wilted flowers. And we stayed happy there for hours.
The sea says. Come with me and whisper. Run with me. And tell me. Why is it you're lonely. . I held your hand. In those years as a child. Soothed all your fevers.
You say, I'm your mystery. Please, don't ever solve me. I won't be a mystery anymore. . Something's holding my breath. Strikes the moment down. Gives me greater heights to reach.
Weary of life you retired from the world. The voice in your soul that cried follow (follow). Told you of treasures of silver and gold. Locked up in an heart that seemed hollow (hollow).
The clock on the wall. Has just told you. Your hour has come. And you know those that God loves. Die young. . But remember. There is never forever. Only the moment.
And here I sit. A cowardly boy. Adventure only dreams. . A captain of. A pirate ship. A million crimson themes. . I wish to be. Content you see. To take the softer seat.
Way back then I was a champion. A fighter in the ring. And all the crowds would cheer. My praises they would sing. Now I am a forgotten man. A hobo out alone.
He's bringing trouble. A suitcase of heartache. Another sad scene on the way. He wears a necklace of tears. A string of bright trophies. Throwing a new love away every day.
