Lyrics
Music & Lyrics by Caz
I watch the clock tick away my last dance with sanity
Asleep to dream of fantasy, I awake reality
That getting over you is not exactly how it seems
Funny how loving you in the real world has a way of smashing all your dreams
Funny how it seems, life to me a dream
CHORUS
Don?t let a good thing slip away, I can?t find the will to stay
I?d trade the rest of my life to see another day
I can breathe the light around me but at what sacrifice
Is my fault in reason, am I in too deep
Funny how the one thing we need is the one thing we can?t keep
Funny how we see just what we want to see
CHANGE
I can see the light fading from my eyes; I grasp at sanity my penitence subsides. And with each breath I take draws me to the other side and the life that I once knew grows dimmer in my mind.
CHORUS
I let a good thing slip away; I can?t find the will to stay
I?d trade the rest of my life to see another, see another, will I see another day
