Gone

The night has been so wrong

It felt so right for one good song

And as the melody played on

I think of happy days long gone

What was it like, under the light?

If there we stayed, is it alright?

Nobody said a word that night

We all just faded out of sight

Sealed in silence, wired in prayers

We made a vow never to part ways

I used to cling tightly to “Always”

But now it stops after the long chase

One step forward creates the past

Plain and simple, nothing lasts
when moments pass, they turn to dust 

at times I pray the longing stops
