[Verse 1]
What were all those dreams we shared those many years ago?
What were all those plans we made now left beside the road?
Behind us in the road
[Verse 2]
"More than friends," I always pledged 'cause friends, they come and go
People change, as does everything, I wanted to grow old
I just want to grow old
[Chorus 1]
Slide up next to me, I'm just a human being
I will take the blame, but just the same, this is not me
You see? Believe
I'm better than this
Don't leave me so cold or buried beneath the stones
I just want to hold on and know I'm worth your love
Enough, I don't think
There's such a thing
[Verse 3]
It's my fault now, I been caught a sickness in my bones
How it pains to leave you here with the kids on your own
Just don't let me go
[Chorus 2]
Help me see myself, 'cause I can no longer tell
Lookin' out from the inside of the bottom of a well
It's hell, I yell
But no one hears
Before I disappear, whisper in my ear
Give me something to echo in my unknown future's ear
My dear, the end
Comes near, I'm here
But not much longer
