Like Ghosts

Gone forever, never was
A time before my memory
Drift in ash towards the sky
Then fall and slowly fade and die

Words are echoes
Thoughts are smoke
Images like ghosts
In the corner of my eye

If I could see through those eyes
One more chance to live another life
Cast away the years and wander through my mind
Would I then return, or leave it all behind?

All so fleeting
All so brief
When it's gone, It's gone forever
Scattered on the breeze

Hold the sea
Hold the Sky
Hold the tide
Hold all time
