Nostalgia plays through me
along with the radio
a taste, a scene, a sound
a touch is not enough
If only i
had known his fear
so torn and feeling frighened
15 years have passed
a sour taste still curls my tongue
in despair, he danced the air
a life became undone
If only i
had recognized
a silenced cry of sweet lies
Ma, you know you can't hold me now
ma, would you like to hold me now
I heard his voice
the trace of tears
still live within that moment
I heard his voice
he lost his will
one's fate revealed that moment
i heard his voice
the moment ends
so much was said in silence
Ma, you know you can't hold me now
ma, would you like to hold me now
and if i could i would
if what had happened then today
i hold you close
not turn away
