Coasting

The curtain's dropping
I stand in the fading lights of my summer
My heart is breaking
'Coz the happiest time of my life is ending

Never laughing, only forgetting
As I lose my memory
The sun is for the last time setting

All the time it takes
My whole life could never last that long
It's sad but it's true so I must get on
With my short life meandering on and on
Into inexistence

Now I'm dreaming
Of someone so precious
The world's too cruel to
Hold her in its arms and hatefully break her

Now I'm leaving
I'm standing at the front door for the last time
I was coasting in a dream world
Smiling faces are no more

All the time it takes
My whole life could never last that long
It's sad but it's true so I must get on
With my short life meandering on and on
Into inexistence

If you're coasting, if you're sailing
If you're dreaming
You can be my friend, we can dream together

If you're coasting, if you're smiling
If you're nowhere
Hide your face till no one's looking

All the time it takes
My whole life could never last that long
It's sad but it's true so I must get on
With my short life meandering on and on
Into inexistence

I try so hard
But I can never have her back again
I lost it all, she heard me cry
And she knows so well

That it's sad but it's true so I must get on
With my short life meandering on and on
Into inexistence

If you like me, if you're like me
If you're coasting
I will dream with you
