Requiem (Hollywood Forever)

(albüm: Hollywood Forever - 2012)

So glad to see you all again
I guess the memories never really end
Hope you can stay here for a spell
Heaven can wait or am I going to hell

My friends
The end has come and gone
Please stay all day
Lie on my lawn
And welcome to my neighborhood
Life's like the beauty of a rose
That wilts and dies into eternal repose
Some get cut before their time
Like songs left written with no final line

My love, my life
No need to cry
I'm here, don't fear
We'll never die
And you know I'd kiss you if I could

So many mysteries in an instant turned to naught
All promised destiny, not promised as was thought
And all life's certainties cut short within a blink
Sometimes eternity comes sooner than you think

Aah-ahh
Aah-ahh

The day is done
Night's on its way
Goodbye for now
Please come again
It gets lonely in this airtight box of steel

Hollywood forever
Hollywood forever
Hollywood forever
Hollywood forever
And welcome to my neighborhood
