We pretend that the end hasn't found us And we cling to the things left behind us Line by line, every rhyme has been written And time left us here unaware In our eyes gentle sighs went unspoken Yes, the days will remain unforgotten Love went by and we tried once too often To save all the dreams that we share And here we stand, the silent strangers Afraid to ask which way to go Our empty hands at last surrender The reason why we'll never know We pretend that the end of our rainbow Cannot die if it lies like a shadow Willows bend when the wind blows to conquer The leaves that have withered away We can't run to the sun like we used to Nothing lasts from the past that we once knew You and I can deny that it's over And yet we must face it somehow Yet here we stand, the silent strangers Afraid to ask which way to go Our empty hands at last surrender The reason why we'll never know We pretend that the end hasn't found us And we cling to the things left behind us Line by line, every rhyme has been written And time left us here unaware In our eyes gentle sighs went unspoken Yes, the days will remain unforgotten Love went by and we tried once too often To save all the dreams that we share
