June 1985
[Verse 1]
Heaven and Earth, oh they fade away
If it's a second, it's a lifetime, wouldn't you say?
I'm tired of all things that you never got to see
Oh, sometimes you take, and sometimes you leave
[Chorus]
Here's to the times that we kept living
Here's to the sins that were forgiven
Here's to the stories that we've told along the way
Here's to the friends that we left better
Here's to the now or nevers
Here's where you and I say goodbye
[Verse 2]
I'll give you a hand, well I'll save you from you
Wasn't the least that I could do
I'm tired of all the things that you never got to say
Oh, Heaven and Earth, when do they fade?
[Chorus]
Here's to the times that we kept living
Here's to the sins that were forgiven
Here's to the stories that we've told along the way
Here's to the friends that we left better
Here's to the now or nevers
Here's where you and I say goodbye
[Bridge]
Why did it seem so hard to let you fade, fade away?
Why did it take so long to let you fade, let you fade
Why did it seem so hard to let you fade, fade away?
Fade away
[Chorus]
Here's to the times that we kept living
Here's to the sins that were forgiven
Here's to the stories that we've told along the way
Here's to the friends that we left better
Here's to the now or nevers
Here's where you and I say goodbye
