 2x Verse without lyrics
Eyes  betray the soul  and bear its  thinking
 Beyond words,  they say so many  things to  me.
 A stranger here,  reborn it  seems, awaking wonders  deep in me
 If nothing's ventured,  nothing's gained,  so I must  seize the day.
 And fighting time,  so hard I  pray that this moment  lasts forever
 And will the world  stay standing still  at least for me.
 Through my eyes  stare into me.  I bare my heart  for all to see
 With my face  turned to the sun  there ever standing  still.
 It wasn't you, it wasn't me, it wasn't anything
 It was a day so long awaited and a chance to be as me.
 I let the wind run through my hands before I turned to walk away.
 In distant days I long to sense it all so clear.
 And fighting time,  so much I  ask, I will this  moment last forever
 Though seasons  change, things come  to pass, remain inside  of me
 And fighting time,  so hard I  pray that this moment  lasts forever
 And will the world  stay standing still  at least for me.
 I had no faith, before that time in any vow or deed.
 Days followed days, and years were meaningless.
 Despite the wisdom of defeat I bore my heart for all to see.
 The wonders I had seen, the wonders I had seen.
 (Chorus 1)
 (Chorus 2)

[Ebm]Eyes betray the [Bbm]soul and bear its[Ebm] thinking [Bbm]
Beyond [Ebm]words, they say so [Bbm]many things to[Ebm] me.      [Bbm]
A stranger [F#]here, reborn it[C#] seems, awaking [Ebm]wonders deep in [F#]me
If nothing's [Ebm]ventured, nothing's [Bbm]gained, so I must[Ebm] seize the day.[Bbm]

And fighting [F#]time, so hard I[C#] pray that this [Ebm]moment lasts forever
And will the [F#]world stay standing [C#]still at least for m[Ebm]e.
Through my [F#]eyes stare into m[C#]e. I bare my h[Ebm]eart for all to see
With my [F#]face turned to the s[C#]un there ever [Ebm]standing still.

It wasn't you, it wasn't me, it wasn't anything
It was a day so long awaited and a chance to be as me.
I let the wind run through my hands before I turned to walk away.
In distant days I long to sense it all so clear.

And fighting [F#]time, so much I[C#] ask, I will thi[Ebm]s moment last forever
Though season[F#]s change, things com[C#]e to pass, remain in[Ebm]side of me
And fighting [F#]time, so hard I[C#] pray that this [Ebm]moment lasts forever
And will the [F#]world stay standing [C#]still at least for m[Ebm]e.

I had no faith, before that time in any vow or deed.
Days followed days, and years were meaningless.
Despite the wisdom of defeat I bore my heart for all to see.
The wonders I had seen, the wonders I had seen.

(Chorus 1)
(Chorus 2)
