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 want
don't mean nothing more when you openyour eyes and they're goneAfter all we've been told we're still flesh and bone
and love's worth much more than silver and gold
and all that I've lost and all that I want
mean nothing more when you openyour eyes and they're goneAnd how could it be that we'll never see
The first day of spring and the last of them leaves?
So lost in my mind, I tried to stay strong
If wounds heal in time, tell my why it'sso hard to move on?
hard to move on?
I'll never move onI curse those 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 they come and die when you openyour eyes and they're gone
someday they're gone
someday they're be goneAnd I'll still be here chasing the sun.
