It's that moment when you didn't get a second chance
It's the feeling when you'd do it different looking back
Every summer felt like it'd keep going on and on
Just like a dream that was already gone

It's that moment when you couldn't picture who you'd be
But now the way you were is locked up in your memory
Every photograph is calling out to realize
You only have one life

Time moves like a soldier
Marching through the streets
If I don't wake up now darling
I'll be living like I'm fast asleep

I reach up to touch the sky
And finally smell the roses
Even a lonely night
Is gone before you know it
Gone gone gone
Gone with all the roses
Gone gone gone
Gone before you know it

It's the feeling when you lose someone you really love
It's the moment when you know you're never giving up
On living every second like it might just be your last
'Cause it going fast

Time moves like a soldier
Marching through the street
If I don't wake up now darling
I'll be living like I'm fast asleep

I reach up to touch the sky
And finally smell the roses
Even a lonely night
Is gone before you know it
Gone gone gone
Gone with all the roses
Gone gone gone
Gone before you know it

Like a flower never stays the same
Everything can change in an instant
A dozen roses and the perfect day
Oh they have to fade away

Gone gone gone
Gone with all the roses
Gone gone gone
Gone before you know it

I reach up to touch the sky
And finally smell the roses
Even a lonely night
Is gone before you know it
Gone gone gone
Gone with all the roses
Gone gone gone
Gone before you know it
Gone, gone before you know it
