Like A Bird

I sit back and I close my eyes
Lookin back at all the lows and all the highs
Through the black and white and in between
All the miles ive walked
The wars ive fought
And all ive seen
It all seems like yesterday
Like a bird, time does fly
No sooner than you said hello
Its time, it's time, it's time to say goodbye
Consumed by worry, stress and fear,
Never leanring to live
Weighed down by wondering why we're here
Collected memories
All that's in the end
I guess a sense of peace wasn't meant for some, my friend
It all seems like yesterday
Like a bird, time does fly
No sooner than you said hello
Its time, it's time, it's time to say goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
It all seems like yesterday
Like a bird, time does fly
No sooner than you said hello
Its time, it's time, it's time to say goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
