가사
Verse 1:
(Soft, reflective tone)
When I was a child, I played in the sun
Laughter and joy, memories begun
With family close, every day felt so right
But time moves on, like day turns to night
Chorus 1:
(Rising intensity)
Oh, how the years slip away, like sand through my hands
Moments of yesterday, now distant lands
If I could turn back time, I'd hold them so tight
But they're gone, just echoes in the night
Verse 2:
(Deep, remorseful tone)
Teenage dreams, I argued and fought
Left home behind, never gave it a thought
The call came too soon, they were gone in a flash
Left with regrets, my heart turned to ash
Chorus 2:
(Emotional crescendo)
Oh, how the years slip away, like sand through my hands
Moments of yesterday, now distant lands
If I could turn back time, I'd hold them so tight
But they're gone, just echoes in the night
Bridge 1:
(Haunting and soft)
Lonely roads and broken dreams, friends betrayed, or so it seems
Promises made, then torn apart, shadows linger in my heart
(Voice fades into instrumental break)
Verse 3:
(Resigned and weary tone)
At thirty-five, I found love again
A wife, some kids, I thought it was the end
But dreams called me away, I left them behind
Now I walk alone, peace I can't find
Chorus 3:
(Sorrowful and reflective)
Oh, how the years slip away, like sand through my hands
Moments of yesterday, now distant lands
If I could turn back time, I'd hold them so tight
But they're gone, just echoes in the night
Verse 4:
(Soft, fragile tone)
Now I'm fifty-six, walking this path
Haunted by choices, my heart feels the wrath
No family to hold, just memories that sting
The silence so loud, it’s deafening
Chorus 4:
(Soulful and aching)
Oh, how the years slip away, like sand through my hands
Moments of yesterday, now distant lands
If I could turn back time, I'd hold them so tight
But they're gone, just echoes in the night
Bridge 2:
(Echoing and soft)
In my seventies, lying in bed, tears for what’s lost, words unsaid
Regrets and pain, my only friend, waiting for the lonely end
(Voice fades into instrumental break)
Outro Chorus:
(Fading, whispering tone)
Oh, how the years slip away, like sand through my hands
Moments of yesterday, now distant lands
If I could turn back time, I'd hold them so tight
But they're gone, just echoes in the night
(Voice fades to silence, lingering notes)
