lyrics

Different Paths

We’re growing apart friends,
Each of us taking different paths,
And though our paths may cross,
We’ll never find what we have lost.

Time’s tracing its’ lines love, onto your face,
Like a beautiful portrait shaded in haste,
And though we don’t go out,
And though we don’t go out,
We have fun inside.

Oh yesterday’s gone before you said goodbye.
Oh yesterday’s gone before you know it,
You can’t try to slow it,
It’s over, it’s over,
It’s gone.

The sun’s going down now, so think what you’ve done,
’Cos you can’t get the day back now evening’s come.
And in the shadows you look sad,
’Cos you’ll never have quite what you had.

But all is not lost babe, we sleep a third of our lives,
And on the silk road of sweet dreams the past comes alive.
Where all that’s been will be,
And all we’ve loved we’ll love,
All over again.

Oh yesterday’s gone before you said goodbye.
Oh yesterday’s gone before you know it,
You can’t try to slow it,
It’s over, it’s over,
It’s gone.
