DES UK - As I Grow Old Lyrics

As I grow old I can't see her face
Once so sublime lost in time and I'm blinded
Blurred in my dreams though once it had seemed
I never saw such grace

Is this a surprise? You believed in the lies
Romantics like you seem to breed

I just observe that things turn out strange
I loved that face
When she smiled I was reminded
Love's all we have to make the days pass
In painless ease what's changed?

Well nothing at all
My heart's still full
But my senses have failed
Gashing the sails
Leaving me lost at sea

We loved that face
We loved her too
We loved that face
We loved her too

It's just the speed of life razor sharp
Cutting my memories away from me
And only scars remain of the beautiful pain
You're still alive they say

We all give space to the ones that carved
That path through our hearts
I wonder if she is so minded
To do the same for me
And remember blood dreams
Where passions unfed left us starved

Well I've lost my place I was mourning her face
But it falls into shadow but do I feel bad? No
Memory is all she should think
