Ghosts of Vaudeville Hope and Despair Lyrics

Oh how golden days fly by
Melting into yesterday
I can but watch them die
And watch them fade
Fade away

Like minutes into hours
Like sadness into sorrow
Like sweetness into sour
Like today into tomorrow
Like the young into the old
Like smoke into the air
Like warmth into the cold
Like hope into despair

Oh how golden days flew past
Rotting into yesteryear
I can't seem to make them last
Moments once held so dear
Fade away

Like minutes into hours
Like sadness into sorrow
Like sweetness into sour
Like today into tomorrow
Like the young into the old
Like smoke into the air
Like warmth into the cold
Like hope into despair

The polished into rust
A flight into fall
Demolished into dust
A plight felt by all

And even when
It seems better I know
And even when
It seems better I know

It won't last
It will fade
Into the past
Dead and decayed

Like minutes into hours
Like sadness into sorrow
Like sweetness into sour
Like today into tomorrow
Like the young into the old
Like the smoke into the air
Like the warmth into the cold
Like hope into despair
