Lyrics

PAST

Verse:

1. A faded photograph brings memories of a day -
a time and place now left behind.

Forgotten faces smile, their reasons long elapsed -
awakes a yearning to relive the past.

2. Our mutual starting point, that moment caught in time -
then each their calling must obey.

For some, a fulfilled life, but others toil and pray -
their dreams, long held, will come true one day.

Middle Eight: (Repeated)

Oh how I miss them

Ghosts from my youth

Time is a robber

A thief on the loose

Verse:

3. Relentless progress, forcing friendships to one side -
a different ethos now prevails

The joy of youth replaced, material wealth we seek -
a time to stop and rewind our lives

a time to stop and rewind our lives

4. A faded photograph can change our current ways -
good times, best friends and more great days

good times, best friends and more great days
