The Moments We Lived
Our lives offer only the years we live
the memories we hold are ours alone
they come and go, we quietly relive
when we travel the landscapes we have sown
the sunrise will come on another day
as we look back across our years again
the world still spins as our time fades away
with each minute of breath, our mouths take in
we'll wrestle with the pros and cons we've done
the choices we made, the places we've been
the bridges crossed to reach the midnight sun
and the pangs we felt from scars on our skin
it all adds up to the life cycles shared
and the times we spent with all those who cared
