Last Days with Elena

(ooh-ooh-ooh) I only remember a few small things

Back in the office with the dust-mote

wings

Playing on the floor,

making up a game

Before the world forgot your name

Our fathers chatted by the wooden desk

While we were laughing,

young and picturesque

We built a kingdom out of paper-weight stones

Before we ended up alone

Elena,

I'm sorry for the quiet years

For all the miles and the unspoken tears

I still remember how we used to be

Before the shadow took you far from me

(Elena, oh)

(ooh-ooh-ooh) Where did you go? (ahhh)

I lost the path,

I didn't

hold the thread

So many words I wish I would have said

Now you're a memory in an old hallway

And I am left here in the gray

Elena,

I'm sorry (I'm so sorry)

Just a boy and a girl in the office light

Before you vanished in the night
