Where would all the regrets and sorrows hide
But in the waves left here from Eden's tide
Made up of every tear that was ever cried for a moment lost in vain?
The sunbeams from some dawn in retrospect
Throw light on consequences of neglect
Paint over everything that could reflect it and the shadows still remain
It's all too clear after a thousand hints
Valued things are never permanent
Another day, perhaps, and ever since, but now, there's just tonight
Somewhere the story's opening anew
Somewhere someone's just promised they'll stay true
Though I couldn't make it there with you, someone's bound to get it right
But in the waves left here from Eden's tide
Made up of every tear that was ever cried for a moment lost in vain?
The sunbeams from some dawn in retrospect
Throw light on consequences of neglect
Paint over everything that could reflect it and the shadows still remain
It's all too clear after a thousand hints
Valued things are never permanent
Another day, perhaps, and ever since, but now, there's just tonight
Somewhere the story's opening anew
Somewhere someone's just promised they'll stay true
Though I couldn't make it there with you, someone's bound to get it right
