When we were young, how we could fly
       G+G                 C majorC       G/BG/B
How we could float along like summer winds and touch the sky

Our lives were intertwined forever so it seemed

We only turn a fleeting glance to what was then

Bridge:
     FF
One small note of regret
       G+G
It could have been and yet

We kind of lost our way

From day to day
        C majorC
The years just faded away
      A minorAm
They had no time to stay

Time will not wait for lovers' fanciful dreams
