"Hi," he says
|
"Higher than the stars," he says
|
And "I know I've seen you before," he says
|
She looks up deep into his eyes and stares
|
"Where were you into my life till now?"
|
|
I know that when we're together our hearts fall into line
|
And I know why I'm afraid, this is my first time
|
And the stars will be quiet while I sing you this song
|
And I know I've been here before, and all day long
|
|
"Why," he says, "run away from faded prayers?"
|
"Are you so scared that we might not get along?"
|
Shy, she is, weary to speak of love
|
And too tired to sleep, too tired to dream
|
|
I know that when we're together our hearts will fall in line
|
And I know why you're afraid, this is your first time
|
And our hearts will be quiet while I sing you this song
|
And I know I've been here before, and all day long
|
|
Winter comes, brings with it its shortened days
|
Leaves us less time in between deep nights
|
And she stays because there's no time to wait
|
And the morning stillness still leaves no time for the light
|
|
I know that when we're together our hearts will fall in line
|
I know why we're afraid, this is our first time
|
Our hearts will be quiet while I sing you this song
|
And I know I've been here before, and all along
|
I know I've been here before, and all along
|
All day long, and all along. all along...
