What was it you said to me
|
Back in the days when things looked fine
|
'bout how we would be together
|
Until we left the earth behind
|
Oh, it's funny how things can change
|
Cos there was a time I thought I'd be the one
|
Who'd leave and start again
|
But now I'd stay forever
|
|
Ooh my hopes are as the leaves upon the water
|
Just sunk in the night
|
And though I know you couldn't care, you oughtta
|
Ah, the end of a life
|
Or maybe when you're older, and you're thinking back
|
You might recall
|
Now did I act carefully, did I do right?
|
Or were we meant to be, all of our lives
|
In love and harmony, all of our lives?
|
|
So now, take my hand
|
Come, hold me closely
|
As near as you can
|
Believing all that we could be
|
And all that we have been
|
And all that we are
|
|
Everyday seems summertime
|
The river flow with wine
|
Ooh when you were here with me
|
I wish we'd stayed that way forever
|
|
Oh my hopes are as the leaves upon the water
|
Just sunk in the night
|
And though I know you couldn't care, you oughtta
|
Ah, the end of a life
|
Or maybe when you're older, and you're thinking back
|
Well you might recall
|
Now did I act carefully, did I do right?
|
Or were we meant to be, all of our lives
|
In love and harmony, all of our lives?
|
|
So now, take my hand
|
Come, hold me closely
|
As near as you can
|
Believing all that we could be
|
And all that we have been
|
And all that we are
|
|
Oh my hopes were as the leaves upon the water
|
Ah, sunk in the night
|
And though I know you couldn't care, you oughtta
|
Oh, the end of a life
|
And maybe when you're older, and you're thinking back
|
Oh, you might recall
|
Now did I act carefully, did I do right?
|
Or were we meant to be, all of our lives
|
In love and harmony, all of our lives?
|
|
So now, take my hand
|
Come, hold me closely
|
As near as you can
|
Believing all that we could be
|
And all that we have been
|
And all that we are
|
