Oh you're a star
A fall from grace
You’re a life I could not save
We lost our time
With letters in the sand

Tears are falling from your eyes
Yeah, it’s a long and sad goodbye
I tried to stop
There is a better place for us

There's no time for our tomorrow
Don't waste your time with prayers or sorrow
Try to escape from the past every day
Babe, you're sailing
Away

I'm a simple man tonight
With no riches or reserves
Girl, don't look back
Maybe this is a better place for us

Oh, I know you don't walk on water
We just swim in this sea of madness
We lost our time
With letters written in the rain

There's no time for our tomorrow
Don't waste your time with prayers or sorrow
Try to escape from the past every day
Baby, you're sailing
Away
