Never
Tempus Fugit Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You never ask me if I wish to go with you
To this land inside your mind
Walk in the garden I remember all those days
When I found my endless dreams

Your eyes seem to me like to distant stars
I want to go with you
take my hand and carry me away from here
Anywhere, anyplace you want to
Stay with me just one more time

You never told me why you have to go
To this land so far away
You never told me and I never understood
All those dreams deep inside your mind

And now when I look through the window
I see your eyes in the stars

Tell me, trust me, show me your dreams
Just let me in
Hold me, believe me, give your heart
A piece of your soul

I wait for you for all time
I call your name to the stars




I hear your voice on the wind
But I miss you forever more
