V1
I touched your face
And traced the lines
Growing old
Is the crime of crimes
So hold on tight
To the hands of time
He'll lead us to
The edge of forever
V2
When darkness fell
In the fading light
Just out of reach
And out of sight
Chasing shadows
In the shades of night
Dawns chorus sang
As we passed on by
CHORUS
We danced the dance
In the moonlight
Left footprints on our grave
Forever young was a dream
Our tears of sorrow gave
Forever young was a promise
The reaper never made
V3
From youth of spring
To autumn of life
We lived in peace
Died free from strife
The summer sun
Hid the truth in lies
While winter whispered
Her last goodbye
BRIDGE
Walk with me
Come walk with me
Soon be free
We'll soon be free
There ain't no place
I'd rather be
When the sandman
Calls your name
CHORUS
