Hawkwind - Lost Chances lyrics

Crystal evenings, long ago
Twisted winds and weeping snow
We missed a turning in the past
Is there anything that can last
The race is run, the time is right
Get out your gun it's time to fight
And all our dreams just turn to dust
Look to the future forget the past
Mistakes you've made can't be redeemed
They are made because you dreamed a dream
Honest sunsets turn to paint

The lie you tell becomes a taint
The house you built reverts to dust
The sword you held it turns to rust
The lies you tell destroy your will
The price you paid you're paying still
And the rocks in the river
Grow higher and higher
As the water gets lower and lower
There are ghosts in our lives
That will not fade
There are ghosts in our lives
That will not fade, until we've paid
