The Day the Music Died Songtext
von Crossfade

As the evening sun set into the sea
Like a torch of liberty
With a one-eyed perception, I let it so free
Fading in oblivion, never be the same
Tell me what is going on
Can I find the strength to carry on?

Living on the edge of time
In a fairy tale
All this madness, I can′t take no more
I can still recall

The day the music died
The day our future was deprived
Nothing really matters to me anymore
Wish I could turn back the time
The day the music died
Before our future was denied
Longing for that feeling of innocence and trust
Wish I could turn back the time


Like dust in the wind, a word went through my mind
Shadows linger in the dark
So deceptive is the heart
Searching for a reason why, believing in a lie
Tell me what is going on
Tell me how could someone do so wrong?

Living on the edge of time
In a fairy tale
All this madness, I can't take no more
I can still recall

The day the music died
The day our future was deprived
Nothing really matters to me anymore
Wish I could turn back the time
The day the music died
Before our future was denied
Longing for that feeling of innocence and trust
Wish I could turn back the time

And then one day you′ll see and come to realize
There's still some things worth living for
There's a longing there deep inside your heart that still remains
Like a whistle fading from a distant plane
Into the night, into the night
Oh, fading away


The day the music died
The day our future was deprived
Nothing really matters to me anymore
Wish I could turn back the time
The day the music died
Before our future was denied
Longing for that feeling of innocence and trust
Wish I could turn back the time

Turn back the time
Oh, turn back the time
Turn back the time, yeah
