[Verse 1] There's a moment in time, and it's stuck in my mind Way back, when we were just kids 'Cause your eyes told the tale of an act of betrayal I knew that somebody did [Pre-Chorus 1] Oh, waves of time Seem to wash away the scenes of our crimes For you, this never ends [Chorus 1] Can you stay strong? Can you go on? Kristy, are you doing okay? A rose that won't bloom, winter's kept you Don't waste your whole life trying To get back what was taken away
[Verse 2] Though the marks on your dress had been neatly repressed I knew that something was wrong And I should've spoke out, and I'm so sorry now I didn't know, 'cause we were so young [Pre-Chorus 2] Oh, clouds of time Seem to rain on innocence left behind It never goes away [Chorus 1] [Pre-Chorus 2] It never goes away [Chorus 1] Don't waste your whole life trying To get back what was taken away
