We walked on the beach beside that old hotel |
|
They're tearing it down now |
|
But it's just as well |
|
I haven't shown you everything a man can do |
|
So stay with me baby |
|
I've got plans for you |
|
This is the time to remember |
|
Cause it will not last forever |
|
These are the days |
|
To hold on to |
|
Cause we won't |
|
Although we'll want to |
|
This is the time |
|
But time is gonna change |
|
You've given me the best of you |
|
And now I need the rest of you |
|
Did you know that before you came into my life |
|
It was some kind of miracle that I survived |
|
Some day we will both look back |
|
And have to laugh |
|
We lived through a lifetime |
|
And the aftermath |
|
This is the time to remember |
|
Cause it will not last forever |
|
These are the days |
|
To hold on to |
|
Cause we won't |
|
Although we want to |
|
This is the time |
|
But time is gonna change |
|
I know we've got to move somehow |
|
But I don't want to lose you know |
|
Sometimes it's so easy |
|
To let a day |
|
Slip on by |
|
Without even seeing each other at all |
|
But this is the time you'll turn back and so will I |
|
And those will be the days you can never recall |
|
And so we embrace again |
|
Behind the dunes |
|
This beach is cold |
|
On winter afternoons |
|
But holding you close is like holding the summer sun |
|
I'm warm from the memory of days to come |
|
This is the time to remember |
|
Cause it will not last forever |
|
These are the days |
|
To hold on to |
|
But we won't |
|
Although we'll want to |
|
This is the time |
|
But time is gonna change |
|
You've given me the best of you |
|
But now I need the rest of you |
