Every Time

Every Time

written by: Ines Ben El Hadj

 

Every time I close my eyes
I just see how fast time flies
And, I make that decision again
Again, I see you taking the train
Again, I just remember the pain
And again, I just hear the rain
It repeats over and over again

Every time I close my eyes
I just see how fast time flies
And I see you in front of me
Everything that I wanted to see
Everything that I hated to see
So close yet so far, like the sea
I was your captive yet I was free

Every time I close my eyes
I just see how fast time flies
Now, your memory’s fading
And, I already see the ending
I see you slowly disappearing
From my heart, in the morning
From my memory, in the spring

Every time I close my eyes
I just see how fast time flies
My present became my past
Everything actually never last
Not even the precious heart
That you left before going apart
What can I do with this part?

Every time I close my eyes
I just see how fast time flies
I put our souvenirs on the shelf
The forgotten shelf of myself
Inside of my soul, that’s so high
Laying under the midnight sky
I am now waving you goodbye
