The Desappearance Of My Youth
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Into the room we disappear again
Fifteen hours of waiting there
Pictures of you when you were young and real
It's the disappearance of my youth
Wishing for life to go backwards forever
Wishing that I could get closer still
I hold you in my dreams like you did
It's the disappearance of my youth
It's the disappearance of my youth
You lived your life like a shadow and that's how we praise
I can't stop thinking I want those years to be ahead
To be ahead
Walking to the kitchen in the night
Slow steps 'cause the waiting hurts
In my dreams it's me who's fading
It's the disappearance of my youth
I keep words on my tongue forever
Hesitating to take your hand
In the morning you will not be here
Still I hesitate to make a move
I just don't see it happening to me
You live your life like a shadow and that's how we praise
You can't stop thinking you want those years to be ahead
To be ahead, to be ahead
It's the disappearance of my youth
It's the disappearance of my youth
It's the disappearance of my youth
It's the disappearance of my youth
