Just Before

As I take my last sip of coffee
And the last drag of my cigarette
I know its just like other times
Like the dimming light of a sun set

Like that Sunday night feeling
Endless summers final days
Feeling the chill of a dying fire
Seeing you turn and walk away

You know you can't stop it
Can't even slow down the time
It's like holding on to water
It's like keeping water dry

Sometimes I get nostalgic
Looking back with longing eye
Don't live in the past I just wonder
Could there be times like these ahead

Like sunsets blaze into darkness
Time to pack when on holiday
Like alcohols last call
When you say there's nothing more to say

You know you can't stop it
Can't even slow down the time
It's like holding on to water
It's like keeping water dry

Sun comes up like yesterday
But some days don't feel the same
Walking forward but looking back
Like a flick of the light of a dying flame

You know you can't stop it
Can't even slow down the time
It's like holding on to water
It's like keeping water dry
