Tighten your tie, boy

You're something to die for

But don't hold your breath now

You're just killing time



Tonight you can dream, boy

Imagine a whisper

If you can keep secrets, then I'll tell you mine

Remember a promise you couldn't hold on to



Though it brings me to tears now,

I need you to know

Look in my eyes, boy

Nothing like yours now

It seems that a lifetime is passing us by

So open your eyes



This is forever but it won't last long

This is a memory that fades away in neverending

In the death of all that's long been said and done before

We'll wish that we were something more



Stop wasting time, boy

You're late all your life, boy

They won't have the patience for someone like you

Your memory is fading



I'll love you forever

I'll try to remember 

I'll try to hold on

You're standing alone, boy



Waiting for dreams, boy

Waiting for something to make them come true 

Don't ever leave, boy

I'll never forget you, as long as I'm here
