Set in motion the circling of day The constant silence of a life That returns when it went far away The voice of reason, intending to stay The truth of seasons, when the light starts to fade And the love dies away A subtle judgement, a step in the way The fated beings of a broad unexpected And improving way The birth of memory, the sinking delay The act embracing, and the step on the path With the dawn of decay Is it easy to say goodbye in your life? Is it taking a toll to turn your back tonight? The beginning of grandeur, spurned, and can't ignite Your enterprising aspirations light Can you hear me when the day goes away? Am I a memory when the light starts to fade And we drift far away? Can you see me when at night you close your eyes? Am I a memory when your life takes you far And your love for me dies?
