the first day of fall
is the last day ill kiss the sky
the cold air surprises
my bones have been spoiled
by the summer's heat
the sun hides its face
and ill hide mine too
sooner or later
this winter will rain down
and leave me to wait for one year

ill be there
ill be there
next year this time ill be there
ill dream of the past
and wish that i was there (ill be there)

i am burning the letters
of days gone by
im sorry but i am scared
that my heart will regret
all the things that ive done
breathe in all of the ashes of my mistakes
gently collapse
so no one will notice
youre falling too short of your breath
ive wasted more time
dreaming than living
ive wasted more time dreaming

ill be there
ill be there
so cherish these days
enjoy every breath like it
will be the last of your life
never look back
and never look back because
you wont forget why you cried
