All is lost you say
Gone with yesterday
But you used to laugh
You had so much to say
Love that came and went
When time was all but spent
Remember when you lived without regret

Like the sky your life is so many shades of blue
Frightened that the ocean could rise up and swallow you
You hold onto the life that you once knew
Preserved so well cause you
You've got a lot to tell
So much to tell

Memories that fade
The distant images ingrained
They used to be so easily relayed

Like the sky your life is so many shades of blue
Frightened that the ocean could rise up and swallow you
You hold onto the life that you once knew
Preserved so well cause you
You've got a lot to tell

So tell me what is life but a passing glance
A fleeting moment that you can't get back
But the whispers and the laughter
All this it, it matters

Like the sky our lives are so many shades of blue
And one day soon the ocean could rise up and swallow you
So hold onto the life given to you
Preserve it well so you
You'll have a lot to tell

Oh we've got a life to live and love to show
But in the end what matters the most
Is who we are and what we tell
