At the turning of time
Left me chasing at shadows
Reaching blindly at flickers of old memories
Seeking out friends who have long passed away
Sharing their dreams for just one more day
Hoping their ghosts now dance joyfully
In the Heavens on high
Do we now say goodbye
To our friends and our lovers?
Have we left it too late to say all we should say?
Moments of missed opportunity
Filled with regret that now burdens me
Listen then now to me, thankfully
For you in my life
Now I bid you farewell
In the breath of my passing
No more worries shall weigh on my wearisome mind
Smile once again when the sorrow has passed
Remember the times when we sang and we laughed
Carry our love to all those who remain
Till the end of all time
