Time passes

Time passes, and 

We must live in the moment,

But never think about living in the moment

Or else the moment is ruined

If we think ahead, how will we focus on finding happiness now?

I miss my old friends

Because one day we’ll cross paths

and i’ll say “hey”

and they’ll say “who are you?”

‘cause they won’t know who i am

and i suppose i won’t know who they are either

We’ve changed so much through all this time

We’re practically strangers now, with only the memory of who we once were

Where did Time go?

But I guess, when you live in the moment, you don’t think ahead

You don’t think about trying to enjoy it, because you already are

And just like that, it’s gone

I wish we could go back

I wish I could go back
