Letra de ' God and Man ' de Donna Burke

Memories keep flooding in showing the paths I should've taken, but
now that time has run away from me I cannot change a thing
I remember how you'd counsel me with wisdom of the ages true:
"Live your best life" you told me and "You walk the earth but once"

and now you've come, to see me once again, I feel safe at last
Although I feel the end is coming closer unto me
If I could only travel back in time, to peaceful days gone by
But this is my price to pay: to not survive beyond this very day

Oh, the pain is lessened when you're near, there is no fear
I'm whole again as in days gone by, if only for a while
But it hurts to have to leave you so, I don't want to go
Could this sacrifice cost me my life?

Oh, just to live my life again, to treasure every little moment then
satisfied, I'd leave you all behind, accepting of my fate
But I am full of grief, to leave this life so incomplete
My dream is coming to the end

And now the light is fading, broken wings have brought the journey's end
Your voice, that led me safe thus far is fading from my ears
You were everything to me, a light to guide me in my darkest hour
don't want to say goodbye just yet, don't want to be alone

and then you come, to hold me once again, I feel safe at last
Although I feel the end is coming closer unto me
If I could only travel back in time, to peaceful days gone by
But this is my price to pay: to not survive beyond this very day

Oh, the pain is lessened when you're near, there is no fear
I'm whole again as in days gone by, if only for a while
But it hurts to have to leave you so, I don't want to go
Could this sacrifice cost me my life?

Oh, tomorrow will not ever come, my night's begun
And I must travel far beyond, to places yet unseen
Remember me, and treasure everyday; even come what may
forget not the precious gift of time, I pray

Oh, just to live my life again, to treasure every little moment then
satisfied, I'd leave you all behind, accepting of my fate
But I am full of grief to leave this life so incomplete
My dream is coming to the end
