Bloom by One True Thing Lyrics

As my life has run its course
And my words have lost their soul
Sighing heavy with remorse
For the things I put on hold

And when my name is carved in stone
And when my thoughts are not my own
And when my children leave my home
And then I'm all alone!

All the rights that have gone wrong
Will engrave me on this earth
I will sing a thousand songs
Just to know that I've been heard

And as my days turn into nights
I'll lose my grip and lose my sight
And when I'm looking towards the light
I'll know I've fought my fight!

I will go, but will not be forgotten
All these sins and nothing's been sinking in!
As my life is flashing by
Not a chance to close my eyes!
Closer
Closer
Closing...down
And when my friends all move away
My hair will fall and turn to gray
And when I'm lost without a home
And then I'm all alone!
All alone. Alone
When I am old
Run out of time
When I die
