In former youth
I used to be lion-hearted
Faith to prove
Leaving my hope unguarded
I never knew
I could feel so lost
I traced the roots
Back to my mother's garden
Where the world spun around my room
And all of my dreams first started
With all these tears in my eyes
Keep running back to better times in vain
Wistful, dreaming of life
Stuck in the valley of my prime
Can't stay anymore
The weight of stone
Set on my weary shoulders
In constant tow
Of this past I'm holding
With all these tears in my eyes
Keep running back to better times in vain
Wistful, dreaming of life
Stuck in the valley of my prime
Can't stay anymore
Can't stay no more
With all these tears in my eyes
Keep running back to better times in vain (in vain)
Wistful, dreaming of life
Stuck in the valley of my prime
Can't stay (can't take it, take it no more)
Can't stay (can't take it, take it no more)
Can't stay
