Lyrics

Verse 1
In days of yore, a man did well
Whose heart was filled with hope's sweet spell
He saw the world through starlit eyes
Embracing dreams that touched the skies

But as the years slipped through his hands
Time etched its marks upon life's sands
The world grew weary, heavy, and cold
And cynicism's grip took hold

Chorus
Oh dear time, please grant us more days to feel
Oh damn time, to savor what we missed before
At the end, the past doesn't seem so bad
And yesterday, we tossed away our very chance
In the tender moments we let slip away

Verse 2
The man once filled with boundless cheer
Now saw the shadows drawing near
Yet amidst the cynic's hardened gaze
A flicker of yearning still ablaze
For time, the warden, taught him well,
The value of moments he failed to quell

Bridge 1
He longed to turn back life's cruel tide
To seize those chances he cast aside
The good old days, now a distant refrain
He yearned to taste their sweetness again

In twilight's grasp, he found his peace
A bittersweet solace that won't cease
For in the hush of the fading light
He glimpsed the stars that still burned bright

Bridge 2
The man embraced his wizened years
With weary eyes and silent tears
He knew the world was flawed and frail
Yet cherished memories that would never pale

Chorus
Oh dear time, please grant us more days to feel
Oh damn time, to savor what we missed before
At the end, the past doesn't seem so bad
And yesterday, we tossed away our very chance
In the tender moments we let slip away
