Long Ago
Long ago we knew nothing more then each other
We didn’t know what it was to be without one another
Now all it seems these days is a struggle to keep you near
Now all it is these days is a challenge to draw you close
Through the years we had our laughs
Now all we have our tears
Through the years we had more time
Now all we have is empty space
Through it all we had our moments of pure harmonistic friendship
Through the years
Long ago you would catch me if I would fall
Now you stand by
Watch as I fall from the sky
Past the clouds and hit the ground with broken dreams
Bruises around the heart that won’t heal
Whatever happened to long ago?
