I was happy, I was so content
But time's a user, don't know where it went
Can't say goodbye
To the faces not seen for years
Still can bring me to tears
Places I long to be
Still reside here in me
Monuments stood where the weeds now grow
Still I linger, I swim against the flow
Won't say goodbye
For the time has flown much too fast
Left me here in the past
Though things don't stay the same
Nothing puts out the flame
I never look ahead
I always look behind
I briefly closed my eyes, then much to my surprise
I opened them to find
You had all disappeared
Washed away with the years
Where you went, I don't know
But I can't let you go"
