I sit where we once did together A place where time seemed to stand still Often a place of laughter and tears A sense of belonging brings a chill Now I know you are gone from time Just a whisper in the breeze Yet I still can feel your presence Like the wind between the trees I expect to hear your laughter The words that you used to say Yet there seems an awkward silence Even though you've gone away Time waits for neither you nor I It catches up with us all in the end What matters most in precious days Is what is broken we can mend And all these roads we're taking Are roads we cannot stay We hold on to the moments Then watch them fade away The seasons, they move quickly Summers no longer last Winter casts a darkened cloud That forever seems to last Yet the sun will erode the darkness There will be a brighter day It's not how you handle pain Rather, how you make it fade away And all these roads we're taking Are roads we cannot stay We hold on to the moments Then watch them fade away So I will keep on walking Wherever I may go With the ones I love beside me And the memories I know The past is in the mirror The future waits ahead The present is a heartbeat Between the living and the dead And maybe we are travellers Just passing through the years Leaving little pieces Of laughter, love and tears So I will keep on walking Though I don't know where I'll carry every memory I'll carry every prayer The road becomes my story The miles become my thread I'll follow where it takes me Until I rest my head I sit where we once did together And now I understand Some things we cannot hold onto But some things never end The sun will erode the darkness There will be a brighter day It's not how you handle pain Rather, how you make it fade away
