Lyrics


The time has come when now I know
That getting older has taken its toll
And you will find your peace of mind
But I'm gonna have to try.

If I could find the secret of life
I would make you whole again.
'Cause when you're gone
I'll have to pretend that I am.

Chorus:
'Cause I wanna be the brave one,
This I want for you.
Relive when you were younger
And I was younger too.
I wanna be the brave one,
This I wish for you.
It may not make you stronger,
But it may help see you through.

You live your life the best you can
With no regrets of being a better man.
With all you could have become,
All that mattered came from your love.

And if I could find the secret of life
I would make you whole again.
'Cause when you're gone
I'll have to pretend that I am.

Chorus

Through.
You'll make it through.

Chorus
