Story Behind the Song
I wrote this song during the time when my dad was getting more ill. He died of lupus in 1997.
Lyrics
Something's changed, their lives aren't the same.
Bored of all the things they do every day.
If only there was something new,
Some excitement would be nice.
Anything than nothing else,
Than burning in the ice.
Don't wash out from my mind,
I wanna see you one more time,
Looking down you see my face,
Did you realize I'd be the one to take your place?
As they stare into open space,
They realize that secret place.
They haven't been there since they were young,
and they remember all the fun,
All the times they spent at play,
They must have been there every day,
"Let's go back," they think inside.
We'll stay forever, we'll just hide.
If only they could stay,
So youthful, like in those days,
The fun would just last forever,
If there was just a way,
Nothing's how they remember,
It's been long forgotten,
It used to be so easy to live,
now they long to be young.
'Cause now I know what you mean to me,
Without you, pure insanity,
You could lose your mind,
if you were in my place for just one time...
