Lyrics
(MAKE UP) FOR LOST TIME
Music by: Patrick L. Schiller
Lyrics by: Patrick L. Schiller and Jim Stay Jr.
I?m just sitting here
Thinking about the days
You know that I?m so sorry
That we had to end this way
I know that life is never really what it seems
A reflection in a mirror and a face I see
Now I?m gonna wake-up
So I can make up for lost time WO WO
Now I?m gonna wake-up
So I can make up for lost time
Well, I know that its been
A whole lotta years
And I can remember
A whole lotta tears
I know that life is just an illusion of my mind
Just another dream I can?t see with my eyes
Well, I can?t believe the loneliness
That keeps tuggin? at my heart for me to stay
I only know it is the time for me
To carry on and go my own way
I?m gonna wake-up
Make up for lost time
I?m gonna wake-up
Make up for lost time
And I can?t believe the loneliness
That keeps tuggin? at my heart for me to stay
I know it is the time for me
To carry on and go my own way
Go my own way
I?m gonna wake-up
Make up for lost time
I?m gonna wake-up
Make up for lost time
I know that its been
A whole lotta years
And I can remember
A whole lotta tears
I know that life is just an illusion of my mind
Just another dream I can?t see with my eyes
Just another dream I can?t see with my eyes
Just another dream
Just another dream I can?t see with my eyes OH
