Past tense, Tense past

5o clock in the morning
And the world is not making a sound.
I watch you sleep on the camera.

We talked all night,
Every night we moved the ground
With our youth and our dreams.

While you were looking
I touched your mind with my fingers
And you smelled a perfect smile.

Just a distant connection
But the energy always remains and it linger
Inside a silent computerscreen

But like everything things grow apart
And they will never have a new start

Tell me, when did we start growing old?
I am simply 30 but I already feel cold.
Looking at the past as the place to be,
The moment when I used to feel free.

Tell me, when did we start growing old?
I can't remember thay someone ever told
Me that this is what happens so fast.
I always thought that I had many years left.

It is the morning
And we have been on the phone for hours
While I travel to meet you

We had this passion
That felt forever and like it would devour
Us completely whole

But like everything, those things change
And it's just a memory that remains.

Tell me, when did we start growing old?
I am simply 30 but I already feel cold.
Looking at the past as the place to be,
The moment when I used to feel free.

Tell me, when did we start growing old?
I can't remember thay someone ever told
Me that this is what happens so fast.
I always thought that I had many years left.

I was not wiser
But I was stronger
I had a foolish hope
That it would last longer,
This opportunity to chase my dreams

I don't want to believe
I missed my chance
To keep my wishes
In a place where I can glance
Over and finally touch them

Tell me, when did we start growing old?
I am simply 30 but I am not ready to become cold.
Looking at the now as the place to be,
Now is the moment that I need to feel free.

Tell me, when did we start growing old?
Maybe I should never grow up before I'm cold
Chase my dreams until I catch them and make them mine
Then when I look back I will finally smile
I lived in the moment allmost all the time
