They say that we will never change (our lives have just begun) We can't erase the wasted days (or run away) The time has come for me To move on with this life Far away from you Never to look back They say that we will never change (our lives have just begun) We can't erase the wasted days (or run away) Old man turns and sighs Life has passed him by Then he wakes and cries Life is so far gone They say that we will never change (our lives have just begun) We can't erase the wasted days (or run away) You said time would ease the pain It's not going away Time will never ease the hunger of my soul They won't let me go It's not going away This will never leave From my face They say that we will never change (our lives have just begun) We can't erase the wasted days (or run away) Speak up! Speak for yourself Never take life for granted Speak up! Speak for yourself Never run away
