A distant thought of time long gone
and time not yet to be
one final breath from life to death
no more simplicity
For death is always waiting, one day I know he'll win
but till that time, this life is mine
it will not come again
A tear falls gently down my cheek and tumbles to the floor
I'd gladly trade my destiny to see you just once more
I have a distant thought or two
a thought of time long gone
So violently, it came for you
alone, I faced the dawn
life changed from that moment on...
The years have passed so quickly by
but time don't ease the pain
these distant thoughts of you and I
are all that now remain
I write this on our wedding day
the hardest day of all
as 20 years of yesterdays
a distant thought recalls
