Thirty Years

Chasing rainbows for a lifetime

Then left to go

Like shadows from the sun

Run into traces

Of faces you thought you saw

But never seemed to mean much more

Echoes of a day gone by

Someone else would have to try

To light the stars

In your sky

All the things you planned

Just sand castles washed away

On tidal waves of tears

Fears overpowering

Your complex dreams just slither down

Drowning in rocky pools

Or smashed and dashed

On peril's course

Forcing prematurely thoughts

Of lasting love

In your life

Sometime we need time to spare

Feeling of missed opportunity

Spare a tear and douse your bridge

Thirty years and on the ledge

(Burning)

All the things you planned

(Baby)

Thirty years in bed

(Baby)

All the things you planned

(Baby)

Thirty years in bed

(Baby)

Chasing rainbows for a lifetime

Then left to go

Like shadows from the sun

Run into traces

Of faces you thought you saw

But never seemed to mean much more

Than echoes of a day gone by

When someone else would have to try

To light the stars

In your sky

Your dark sky
