It's Been a While

In the years to come
Maybe we’ll see each other
Standing in the same corner of the street
Remembering those moments 
That we have shared
Perhaps, the tears suddenly fall
In our talking eyes
And it seems it’s been a while
Since we held each others arms.

It’s been a while since 
The day I have seen you smile
It’s been a while
Since I heard your laughter
That was when the clouds keep moving on
Were the summer skies 
Come with us in our morning walk
I wished there was a chance
To change the way 
The world goes round 
Maybe then the roads ahead
Hold different dreams 
for you and me

In a year from now
Maybe we’ll see each others
With a smile in each other face
Holding the yesterday
That we have left behind

It’s been a while 
Since the day you have to say goodbye
But here we are once again
Wearing older faces
Talking about the places 
That we have been

It’s been a while
Since the day you walked away
Looking down the road once again
I felt my heart was breaking
Suddenly the moment was gone
It’s been a while
And now we lived each day
With no regrets
Taking this road once again
I see you smiling back at me
And kiss my tears away.
