Deadline for My Memories - Billie Ray Martin

Peeping through the hole in my soul

At the happines and the loneliness

Fading dreams get out of control

And we talk too much and we tried for words

And when reason ends there’s no reason to try for words

So don’t follow me, don’t call on me

It takes too much to hold on

You run like quicksand through my hands

So walk away, don’t talk to me

I put my faith in you, but it came right after me instead

That is the reason, that’s why our time is over

This is the deadline for my memories

That is the reason, why we can’t see each other

The view is fading, with our eyes too blind for tears

Good times were too good to be true

And the times, they’re the times we’ve had

Tried to find a game to be cruel

And try we did, and cry we did

And when I cried, baby, I cried rivers over you

So, don’t stay with me, don’t fade with me

I thought I need this vision

There’s a body on the floor that looks like me

No words to say, no faith to praise

No hope, no good intentions

I’ve been sitting like a toy staring restlessly

Oh, that’s why, that is the reason, that’s why our time is over

This is the deadline for my memories

That is the reason, why we can’t see each other

The view is fading, with our eyes too blind for tears

That is the reason, that’s why our time is over

This is the deadline for my memories

That is the reason, why we couldn’t see each other

The view is fading, with our eyes too blind for tears
