(Lyrics by: Paul O’Neill – Trans Siberian Orchestra)



TIME

ONLY TIME

COULD NEVER TAKE ME

AWAY FROM YOU



AND WHY

SHOULD I TRY

TIME NEVER CARES

JUST WHAT WE DO



IT JUST SITS ON A STAR AND GAZES DOWN

DROPPING IT’S MOMENTS ALL AROUND

AND IF I COULD WISH UPON THAT STAR

I WOULD FIND WHAT YOU DREAM

AND THEN ASK GOD TO GRANT IT



I WANTED TO SAY THIS

LONG BEFORE THIS DARK WOULD FALL

AT NIGHT I WOULD PRAY THIS

THEN WONDER IF GOD HEARD AT ALL

FOR THE CHANCES I’VE HAD ARE NOW LONG GONE

AND THAT STAR IS NO LONGER WISHED UPON

FOR ON THIS NIGHT IT SEEMS TOO FAR AWAY



TRY

I HAVE TRIED

TO PRETEND THAT I DON’T CARE

BUT THEN

SLEEP ARRIVES

AND IN EVERY DREAM I FIND YOU THERE



BUT I DON’T WANT THE PAST TO BE MY LIFE

BUT I DON’T WANT TO LIVE INSIDE THIS NIGHT

AND I DON’T WANT TO SEE YOUR SHADOW FADE

SO I SLEEP AND I DREAM

THOUGH I DON’T UNDERSTAND IT



I WANTED TO SAY THIS

LONG BEFORE THIS DARK WOULD FALL

AT NIGHT I WOULD PRAY THIS

THEN WONDER IF GOD HEARD AT ALL

FOR THE CHANCES I’VE HAD ARE NOW LONG GONE

AND THAT STAR IS NO LONGER WISHED UPON

FOR ON THIS NIGHT IT SEEMS TOO FAR AWAY



YOU CAN LIVE YOUR LIFE IN A THOUSAND WAYS

BUT IT ALL COMES DOWN TO THAT SINGLE DAY

WHEN YOU REALIZE WHAT YOU REGRET

WHAT YOU CAN’T RECLAIM BUT YOU CAN’T FORGET

IF I COULD JUST FALL BACK INTO MY LIFE

AND FIND YOU THERE INSIDE THIS NIGHT

AND LET ETERNITY JUST DRIFT AWAY
