Time Ran Out
Time ran out and before I knew it, it was too late
God called you home to Heaven's Gate
Our love grew stronger by the day
nothing could stop us as you would say
You were my friend, you were my lover all the way
God up above knows we both loved one another
And I know this, we were meant for each other
Time ran out before it should
I knew I would miss you, I knew I always would
We said our goodbyes up until the last minute
time ran out, and my life goes on without you in it
Emptiness surrounds me and time ticks on
where did it go when we were alone
I loved you then and I love you now
Time goes on and I know not how
