When Time Stood Still

Tine stood still
To rekindle
Ghosts of yesterday
Too old and lost is one's will
We but watch these memmories walk in everyday

You see faces that you've seen before
On by one they begin to walk through your door
The face of pain, joy and sorrow
This is the face of the past and this one - yet to meet tomorrow

You push way the tears
From the broken glass
And I guess
You saw it all
Shining through at last

You begin to see how loved ones come and some disappear into the Sun
Leaving silhoutes of memories in God's painted horizon
The truth shines through and there's no place to hide or run
There is only to ask, "How, Why, Where did I come from?"

Marvelled by the way TIME slipped us by
Some lose themselves in work and others, well, they cry
Some may walk with us but dead they are
Like the dead, rusted engine in a 100,000 pound car

Oh Allah, time stood still
To rekindle
The actions I did yesterday
