For Steve

(album: Ghosts - 2019)

One day I woke
And you were gone
Like the last star
That fades at dawn
"Let time heal"
Is not enough
Sometimes a heart
Will just give up

Well it's not that I don't grieve
But I simply won't believe
That the world will take such beauty
While cruel men roam free

Like the gods
They just chose your time
When the stars
They did not align
Like the wheels
They just refused to turn
May you stay
Will you stay forever young?

So now...
What do I do?
When every sky I see
Is blue
I'm still wondering
If your spirit's here
Or is it somewhere
In the stratosphere

But there's no accepting fate
When [?] refuse to wait
For me to hold you one last time
Before your eyes felt the [?] light

And like the gods
They just chose your time
When the stars
They did not align
Like the wheels
They just refused to turn
Now you'll stay
Will you stay forever young?

Well there is no way of turning time
It's like the [?] came home to find
There is no way, no turning back
Only God sees through the looking glass

If I could only see your face
I'd never wanna leave this place
I'm not alone
'Cause in my dreams you haven't gone

Oh... whoa-whoa...
Oh... oh-oh-oh, whoa...

Like the gods
They just chose your time
When the stars
They did not align
Like the wheels
They just refused to turn
And now you'll stay
Will you stay forever young?

Like the gods
They just chose your time
When the stars
They did not align
Like the wheels
They just refused to turn
And now you'll stay
Will you stay forever young?

Forever young
Forever young
Forever young
Forever young
Oh-oh, oh-oh...
