Soon the Day is Over

Story Behind The Song

When my mother died when I was only 16, I wrote this song a few years later sitting next to a river in a park... and the water flowing by reminded me of how time just passes us by so fast, and each day is just over before you know it. Appreciate your love

Lyrics

time is flowing slipping through our minds,
wiping away the tears as it unwinds,
photographs and memories start to blur,
though Ill never forget the times with her....

the past is gone and so is she,
they did not last long enough for me,
I don't care what they say,
It doesn't matter now anyway...

elements of nature takes ahold,
capturing our lives as it unfolds,
water colors ripple across our eyes,
as we leave this lonely world behind...

writing down the moments of the day,
your pen in hand you slowly slip away...

the future waits impatiently,
as we climb towards our destiny,
I dont care what they say,
It doesn't matter to me anyway...
