Separate ways

Today I saw a face I only dream of

I recognized a feeling that I used to know

From another time, a space I thought I left

Long ago

 

I stood a while, I felt my breath escape me

And spoke her name, then as she turned to face me

For a second there was something in her eyes

A# if to say, nothing has ever changed

 

We took our seperate ways

But in our hearts we never changed

We threw it all away, could we go back once again

I learnt to carry on, I learnt to face another day

Without her, without her trace

So close we nearly touched, I almost took her hand in mine

Time can fall away, but nothing can change the man inside

Or bring us back the love once we denied

 

The candle burned, but in a world of darkness

I'd seperate my life before and after her

Now I see that nothing every really changed

But it's too late

 

I stood a while, I felt my breath escape me

Spoke her name, then as she turned to face me

For a second there was something in her eyes

A# if to say, time and tide can't wait
