A poignant and reflective ballad that explores the bittersweet nature of time and the inevitable passage of life. 'The Time We Lost' captures the emotions tied to watching loved ones age, the fleeting moments with our parents, grandparents, and children, and the deep longing for the days gone by.
Verse 1:
The seasons change, I watch you grow,
With every laugh, a memory flows.
But time, oh time, it takes its toll,
A river’s current, we cannot control.
Chorus:
Oh, the time we lost, can’t bring it back,
Fading shadows on the faded track.
Tangled moments, threads of gold,
In the twilight, stories unfold.
Verse 2:
In the garden where the daisies bloom,
I see your smile, but I sense the gloom.
With every wrinkle, a tale is spun,
Reflections of battles that we’ve all won.
Chorus:
Oh, the time we lost, can’t bring it back,
Fading shadows on the faded track.
Tangled moments, threads of gold,
In the twilight, stories unfold.
Bridge:
I hold my child as they dream awake,
The echoes of laughter—what will they take?
Through the years, we’ll cherish the fight,
And in the darkness, I’ll find the light.
Chorus:
Oh, the time we lost, can’t bring it back,
Fading shadows on the faded track.
Tangled moments, threads of gold,
In the twilight, stories unfold.
Outro:
So here’s to the moments, both bright and dark,
As we leave our mark in the fading spark.
In the quiet whispers, in the heart's song,
We know in the end, we were never wrong.
