Scents of the Past

Darkness is fallin'

Time is running short

Easy to flee

If you make up your mind

I can't help but wonder

What it would be like

Had I left the harbor

Right before the storm?

Could be devastatin'

Here I am just sayin'

But it is my soul

On which vultures feastin'

What is it I'm askin'

I am yearning for?

Deep down inside

I know it very well

Life keeps reminding me

Just in case I forget

And when tomorrow comes

I'll be there to regret...

Don't tell me now

The future will be bright

I smell the scents of the past

With each fading light

When the rays of the sun

Fall on your pretty face

I won't be there as I'll be

Mourning my days
