She was to me
As time is to eternity
We were so free
By Lake Isle of Innersfree
My wounds have bled
Was it something I left unsaid
Where do I go
Seems like aeons of years ago
When she lived for me
I see her face
Then it's gone without a trace
Now it's only me
By Lake Isle of Innersfree
Love sped too fast
I look into my future past
So be my fate
She is gone from me and still I wait
And endlessly
She was only seventeen
You might say in her prime
She said we'd do it all my friend
We'd do it all in time
But now a stranger to myself
I think about it now and then
When she was only seventeen
I was eight and ten
What's become of my life
What's become of my life
Each day I live, each day I die
What's become of my life
Each day gone by I learn to live another lie
As time goes by
As time goes by
As time goes by
As time goes by...
As time is to eternity
We were so free
By Lake Isle of Innersfree
My wounds have bled
Was it something I left unsaid
Where do I go
Seems like aeons of years ago
When she lived for me
I see her face
Then it's gone without a trace
Now it's only me
By Lake Isle of Innersfree
Love sped too fast
I look into my future past
So be my fate
She is gone from me and still I wait
And endlessly
She was only seventeen
You might say in her prime
She said we'd do it all my friend
We'd do it all in time
But now a stranger to myself
I think about it now and then
When she was only seventeen
I was eight and ten
What's become of my life
What's become of my life
Each day I live, each day I die
What's become of my life
Each day gone by I learn to live another lie
As time goes by
As time goes by
As time goes by
As time goes by...
