We tried to stay young
By chasing the sun
You blink for too long
The swans sing a song
And all that I've lost
And all that I've won
Don't mean nothing more
When you open
Your eyes and they are gone

After all we've been told
We're still flesh and bone
And lifes worth much more
Than silver and gold
And all that I've lost
And all that I've won
Don't mean nothing more
When you open
Your eyes and they are gone

And how can it be... That we will never see
The first day of spring and the last autumn leaves
So lost in my mind I tried to stay strong
If wounds heal in time tell me why
It's so hard to move on!
Hard to move on!
I'll never move on!

I caused the mistakes
That we'll never make
The pictures of trips
That we'll never take
And all of these thoughts
They keep me awake
Hang on to your heroes
Before it's too late

Cause there'll come a time when you
Open your eyes
And their gone!
Someday they are gone!
Someday they'll be gone!
And ill still be here
Chasing the sun
