A Parting of the Ways
Shaking hands we part,
The beginning of a new start,
We promise not to say goodbye
Saying we'll always be together
And meet before to many years have passed
Then we left, separate ways
All so scared of what was to come
Swearing hand on heart not to forget
But we all took a different path
Some have children,
Some chose to rise in the world
And others to wait,
From time to time we call
And talk of things bygone,
It's life that takes control
Deciding whats going on
When asked a certain thing
For the sake of memory
We say yes when we should not
But that's where life's taken us
We meet from time to time
Falling into each others arms
Wondering where time has brought us now
And what we can say
For the lost years,
Life took control
And we can only glide along
Hasn't stopped us loving each other
And all those treasured memories
We have all become someone
In our town or country,
We can't regret the time we've lost
Cos we still remember...
The beginning of a new start,

Swearing hand on heart not to forget
But we all took a different path
Some have children,
Some chose to rise in the world
And others to wait,
From time to time we call
And talk of things bygone,
It's life that takes control
Deciding whats going on
When asked a certain thing
For the sake of memory
We say yes when we should not
But that's where life's taken us
We meet from time to time
Falling into each others arms
Wondering where time has brought us now
And what we can say
For the lost years,

And we can only glide along
Hasn't stopped us loving each other
And all those treasured memories
We have all become someone
In our town or country,
We can't regret the time we've lost
Cos we still remember...
