Bay Leaf - Memories

Sitting in front of the TV without a word to say
The same situation every day
Pensioners we�re now, and the children are gone
And friends there are none

Refrain
Are we now, where we wanted to go to
Did all our wishes really come true
Nothing worth to dream of left
Of all our hopes and intentions bereft
To change this world, make it better and sunny
But our ideals got replaced with money

First came the children, then the house at last
And everything was over just too fast
Now there are the both of us alone
But our great love is all too long gone

Do you sometimes think of the time when we were young
What happened to our dreams, to our fun
There must have been a time, where we lost the right track
Our rebellion got replaced with unconcern in a crack

All the years went by so fast and yet
There is nothing I really regret
Just sometimes, when thinking of old times makes me mild
I wished I again were a little child

And again we are sitting in front of the TV
Watching the evening program just after the meal
With crackers on the table and a beer in the hand
We are waiting for our deadly end
