Testo Tango

In the news, a life reduced to ink
Just an age, a street, a date to think
No one heard the clock complain

He would light a match to warm the gloom
Spoke to ghosts that lingered in the room
Even death forgets to stay
Ohhhh! Life is waiting for
Regret the tears that dried
We let the echoes die
Ohhhh! I will write once more
Every verse becomes a tether
Guard your name forever

We are dust that dreams of being known
Carried far by winds we've never flown
Every footprint fades away

Keep faith in meaning
Is this the end?
Still I'll be writing
Stay, my friend
Ohhhh! Life is waiting for
Regret the tears that dried
We let the echoes die
Ohhhh! I will write once more
Every verse becomes a tether
Guard your name forever

Ohhhh! Life is waiting for
Regret the tears that dried
We let the echoes die
Ohhhh! I will write once more
Every verse becomes a tether
Pain and beauty colliding, time still hiding
Guarding your name forever

Ohhhh!
