Funny how I know it's harder, it's harder now. 

Young girl in my young girl days, thinking I could live for always.
But like an ocean tide, I'm drawn back inside and I know.
Seasons pass like sand inside a glass and nothing, nothing returns.
Standing with the friends I've made, I'll race them to the grave.
Well who won, won the extra days?
When you take away the years toll on the waters wide, shallow high and low.
In the autumn sky, happy to know I'm going home.
Even with my eyes closed, funny how I know it's finally, has it finally begun?


I was thinking today 

if you would remember
you choose to remember
what you left me out there
in the cold days fading away
I see you so near
I hear your voice calling
it calls me from these pages to you
beyond the blue,
so sudden too soon
the secrets we knew
I was thinking today
if you would surrender
to feelings that you tried deserting
and if given the choice
I?d still wait for the moment
still wait for the moment
when I could have
a hero like you
days fading away
but I see you so clear
I hear your voice calling
it calls me from these pages to you
beyond the blue.
