where did time go, where was i?
time moves too fast for me
why doesn't anybody see?
all the people keep on moving
i can feel my grasp losing
and suddenly everybody's gone, yeah
and in the end, it doesn't really matter if we're ready or not
cause tomorrow's gonna come anyways, yeah, yeah
-------
see, the problem was, it never felt real. and now ... now it's really not real. it's nothing but a memory now.
see, the problem is, some people can't handle the change. some people aren't able to move on, to release ties, to live with a memory and leave it as that.
it's just ... it's not fair to live with people for 3, 6 weeks at a time. then be separated, possibly forever, never to see some of them again. or maybe, if you're lucky, you'll see them in a month, month and a half when they're traveling through. but after that, who's to say? how long can you stay in contact with someone without actually seeing them? at what point is a friendship stamped 'hopeless,' destined to be forgotten along with grammar school friends and little league teammates? at what is the 3, 6 weeks of happiness worth? well?
