We were the fire that couldn't sustain
Burning bright but felt the pain

Like photographs collecting dust
My heartfelt dreams have turned to rust
A youthful love that’s just gone wrong
You won’t miss me when I’m gone

On and on and on I go
My destination is hard to know
An apparition fading away
Just a reflection of yesterday

I’m just a stitch in your tapestry
Just a note in your melody
Just another verse in your song
And you won’t miss me when I’m gone

All my cherished memories
Fade like whispers in the breeze
Remembrances of all we’ve done
Will melt away when I have gone

So on and on and on I go
But which direction - I don’t know
An apparition fading away
Just a reflection of yesterday

I’m just a stitch in your tapestry
Just a note in your melody
Just another verse in your song
And you won’t miss me when I’m gone

We were the fire that couldn't sustain
Burning bright but felt the pain
So on and on and on I go
I gotta friend in Mexico
