Songtext Silhouette Amalee

Silhouette

"Ready set go!"
We were racing to the goal line not long ago
Even though, there was so much we didn't know yet

Crossing that line
We saw that they would be no going back in time
Even though, there was so much we didn't know yet

We're burning and fighting under the sun
Yeah, my skin is glistening
From sweat dripping down my face

As time will pass, I believe
There are many things that we may forget
Everyone will become a silhouette
But why do we pretend we don't care
All about the things that we hold so dear?
It's so when, it's hurting
We can laugh through the tears

So, here we go!
The little things that I remember from our youth
Above all, I recall, we thought the world ours
But now I understand
I see that destiny is far out of our hands
And the clock can't be stopped
These days keep rolling on

We fight it and fight it
And fight it but
Time will always keep moving on
Farther out of our reach

Yeah, as time will pass, I believe
There are many things that we may forget
Everyone will become a silhouette
But why do we pretend we don't care
All about the things that we really fear?
It's so when, it's hurting
We can laugh through the tears

So gracefully we're fluttering, like dancing leaves
I will live my life
I wanna be free from all the grief here in my memory

And as time will pass, I believe
There are many things that we may forget
But it seems, that some things, they'll never change and
When I close my eyes, it is you
That I see, cause you taught me this truth
Never fade, never fade
This silhouette, yeah

Cherish everything that you love
Hold them closer still in the years to come
Don't let go, even though, time keeps going on

One day soon, I hope we can mend
What we left on that day and start again
So with you, one day soon
We'll laugh through the tears

So gracefully we're fluttering, like dancing leaves
Always dreaming, we'll be flying free
