Oaths Beneath the Fading Sun

Under the afterglow of the setting sun the shadow of youth quietly fades away
Promises like scattered petals drift away with the wind

The contours of youth grow dim those were the days of brilliance
Love danced in the heart so radiant yet fleeting
Days mixed with joy and sorrow reluctant for the night to fall
In this mortal world the tale of flowers concludes white hair silently waits

Love was like a splendid flame lighting up my world
But pain is like the setting sun quietly sinking beneath the sea
Recalling the days of youth the unwavering dreams and vows
Time you've mercilessly taken away my prime

I thought smiles could mask all bitterness
But at each awakening I find my heart heavy
Where has the fervor of youth gone leaving only a lonely shadow
In the gloom and mist with blurred eyes I raise my glass in inquiry

Love was like a splendid flame lighting up my world
But pain is like the setting sun quietly sinking beneath the sea
Recalling the days of youth the unwavering dreams and vows
Time you've mercilessly taken away my prime

I thought smiles could mask all bitterness
But at each awakening I find my heart heavy
Where has the fervor of youth gone leaving only a lonely shadow
In the gloom and mist with blurred eyes I raise my glass in inquiry

Love was like a splendid flame lighting up my world
But pain is like the setting sun quietly sinking beneath the sea
Recalling the days of youth the unwavering dreams and vows
Time you've mercilessly taken away my prime

Time you've mercilessly taken away my prime
