Life Is a Distance

Station to station my life needs improvement
It may be corrected — things have been done
All that I ever wanted — you’ll find it in the replay
Or so they say
Time lost forever — the seconds keep running
Just like the sand in the hour-glass
All the faces I ever knew have to die someday
They fade away
Life is a distance
And I walk it half way back
Sooner or later
My thoughts drifting backwards
The future is catching up
And I didn’t notice anyway
Just turn the glass — see the past taking over
People you knew stand right next to you
Your whole life seem to pass your eyes
Distant memories and I realise that…
Life is a distance
And I walk it half way back
Sooner or later
My thoughts drifting backwards
The future is catching up
And I didn’t notice anyway
So how can I say
That anything we ever had was something
Words we spoke meant something
I really miss the days gone by
Although I hardly can remember
Things we had meant something
Words we spoke meant something
I really miss the days gone by
Although I hardly can remember
Life is a distance
And I walk it half way back
Sooner or later
My thoughts drifting backwards
The future is catching up
And I didn’t notice anyway
