Françoise Hardy

Flashbacks
Had enoughOf the right that we know when it's wrongOf the good times to know when they're goneOf the songs that remain to be sungLiving life care free and bannered in youthBuilt on eternal debutNeglecting and stretching the truthWatching time slip awayAnd all its color fade to grayWhat's been written in stone can't be erasedLooking backWe were so young and naiveTo pretend growing up was impossibleHell we thought it was optionalNow there's shadowsWhere color found life in the pastAnd silence where voice had a chanceLeft with questions that we'll never askWe've let time slip awayAnd all its color fade to grayWhat's we've written in stone can't be erasedIt's sad how life slips awayIn the blink of an eye it's gone bySongtexteAnd the flashbacks are all that we managed to saveIf we're lostAnd can't find a wayTo turn these embers back into a flameKeep holding onIf we're lostWith nowhere to runIf the rush we've been chasing is goneKeep holding onWe let time slip awayAnd watched its color fade to grayBut what we've written in stone can't be erased We saw howlife slips awayIn the blink of an eye it's gone byAnd the flashbacks are all that we managed to saveAnd the flashbacks are all that we managed to save Aus Songtexte Mania
