Memories keep flooding in showing the paths I should've taken, but
now that time [bad word] away from me I cannot change a thing.
I remember how you'd counsel me with wisdom of the ages [bad word] "Live your best life" you told me and "You walk the earth but once"

and now [bad word]  to see me once again, I feel safe at last
Although I feel the end [bad word] closer unto me.
If I could only travel back in time, to peaceful days gone by.
But this is my price to pay: to not survive beyond this very day.

Oh, the pain is lessened when you're near, there is no fear.
I'm whole again as in days gone by, if only for a while.
But it hurts to have to leave you so, I don't want to go.
Could this sacrifice cost me my life?

Oh, just to live my life again, to treasure every little moment then,
satisfied, I'd leave you all behind, accepting of my fate.
But I am full of grief, to leave this life so [bad word] 
My dream [bad word] to the end.

And now the light is fading, broken wings have brought the journey's end.
Your voice, that led me safe thus far is fading from my ears.
You were everything to me, a light to guide me in my darkest hour
don't want to say goodbye just yet, don't want to be alone

and then [bad word]  to hold me once again, I feel safe at last.
Although I feel the end [bad word] closer unto me.
If I could only travel back in time, to peaceful days gone by.
But this is my price to pay to not survive beyond this very day.

Oh, the pain is lessened when you're near, there is no fear.
I'm whole again as in days gone by, if only for a while.
But it hurts to have to leave you so, I don't want to go.
Could this sacrifice cost me my life?

Oh, tomorrow will not [bad word]  my night's begun.
And I must travel far beyond, to places yet unseen.
Remember me, and treasure everyday [bad word] what may
forget not the precious gift of time, I pray.

Oh, just to live my life again, to treasure every little moment then,
satisfied, I'd leave you all behind, accepting of my fate.
But I am full of grief to leave this life so [bad word] 
My dream [bad word] to the end.
