The thought had never crossed my mind But now I know there is no escaping time There's a hand forever lurking in the shadows To all hope it's blind I can't watch as you make your way to the threshold It's killing me inside that I once never shed a tear Before our last goodbye Looking back to help me to look forward My fondest memories I'm screaming at the shadows Afraid that I'll forget At least I'll find some solace Watching your sun set Don't make this harder that it is I don't want a cross to bear I know it's not your fault I just hate the thought of the world Without you here
