Second Chances

That diamond is clouded over

Where once it shone as the daylight,

My days keep passing faster,

Into the dark of night...

The whispers of others say,

"Someday everything in time

Finds it's way home again,"

But I'm so tired of crying...

There have been second chances

Please don't ask me any more

There won't be any answer

Because I can't be here any more...

This things we had together

May still be in their place

But all of this is much too hard,

Too hard to face,

There'll be no more second chances...

The moonlit hours we spent

And the walking on the beach,

Standing in the trees

And gazing to the stars,

I swear at one time

They were in our reach...

But time... it passed by,

And the minutes... they ran too fast.

Like you they were gone...

Into my past....
