Living In Limbo Song

When we were young
Together we both followed the sun
I saw forever in you'r eyes
Made for each other 
With so much to discover
A dream we thought would never dye.

Time took it's toll
As we grew older
Others tried to tear us apart
The fire we once had
Became just a smoulder

We became strangers of the heart.


chorus.

Where did our yesterday's go
Why did it have to end
Teenage sweethearts
Who followed the sun
As both lovers and best friends.


Too many things stood in our way
It was like climbing a mountain everyday
Although our love may have died
I still feel the pain deep inside.

Everything around me reminds me
Of her and haunting memories of loss
Still plague my mind
When you lose everything you had
Life becomes an existence
You live in limbo
And life is so unkind.

As I get older
Life becomes colder
And the sun no longer shines
Sometimes I can't bare anymore
I feel as I'm out of my mind

Chorus.
