Part 1
There's a rumor coming from the land
Where no one's gone before
This world is coming to an end
Take a second glance at the photographs
Hanging on the wall
What was left there to pretend
I sit and watch the day go by
And long for better days
I pray and wait and time goes by
Just give me one more day
I sit and watch the day go by
And long for better days
I pray and wait and time goes by
Just give me one more day
We stand there and watch the years go by
Dreaming of yesterday
One sigh, so many years gone by
Hoping for another day
There's a rumor coming from the land
Where no one's gone before
Part 2
Like in a pleasant nightmare
The world turns up side down
No one seems to care...
Everyday working hard to live the good life
And do as everyone else would say
Forget about your own ride
Getting caught into the web
For you've always wandered
Too close to the edge
No one seems to care...
Runaway
Just run before the clock strikes midnight
And take the last dream away
Don't put a hold on your life
Now you're caught into the web
For you've always wandered
Too close to the edge
Time ticking away
Time slipping away
The elder read the chapters
Reflecting from the mirror
Where have all the good days gone?
Scared of the night fall
He lights a little candle
And prays he'll get to see the dawn
Recalling every vision
Of an uncertain future
Foreseen in a crystal ball
No matter your devotion
Time is just illusion
Don't know what you've got till it's gone
As the night is running out
The dawn is getting closer
And soon you will hear the call
Time goes by
Time goes by
Time goes by
Time goes by
Tonight
Feel the rhythm of time
And the pace of our lives
So many pleasures given to treasure
For the rest of our lives
The stars will rise into the crimson skies
And all our dreams will beat in time
And fuel this mortal life
Cause tonight
Time is on our side
And everything feels alright
Flowing rivers in our minds
Where any dreams were left behind
Just left behind
But the watch that winds a sad look in your eyes
The hands are going round and round
The sand keeps falling down
The pendulum of life swings from left to right
Providing oh so many pleasures
To make you walk in line
There's a paper doll with strange button eyes
That sits up on the shelf
Brings me back in time
And a music box replays the song
That sang within the heart
Of those who stood behind
And all those tears won't justify
To cast the dream away
One sigh, so many years gone by
Hoping for another day
When the dusty dream that runs your life
Would play a different game
Brings you back on time
For this world that's pushing you aside
Standing in the rain
Keeps you right on time
You sit and watch the day go by
And long for better days
You pray and wait and time goes by
And wish for one more day
We stand there and let the years go by
Dreaming of yesterday
A tear, so many years gone by
Hoping for another day
For all the love we get,
We take, we lose, we make
Another day
For all we touch and see,
We hear and we create
Just another day
For all of those who think
This world is just a game
Come out and play for another day
Come out and play...
For all the love we get
Another day
Come out and play...
