| I got to fix the light
|
| And pour me a drink
|
| I’m ‘bout to spill my life
|
| With every drop of ink
|
| To recall what’s miles away
|
| And will never feel the same
|
| The life I lead
|
| Before I learned your name
|
| My night is old
|
| My hours have no name
|
| Yesterday still held me lonely
|
| Tonight just in vain
|
| Who has rolled the dices
|
| And got me playing that game
|
| Memory of the life I led
|
| Before I learned your name
|
| I can’t recall
|
| My old ways
|
| There were no Valentine’s
|
| And no St. Patrick’s days
|
| All Memories sink
|
| Without leaving a tray
|
| There are calendars before and after
|
| You came my way
|
| Yesteryear another life
|
| Slips away so fast
|
| Photographs hide expressions
|
| Of a long gone past
|
| You’ve handed me a mirror
|
| But reflection’s not the same
|
| I won’t ever lead the life I led
|
| Before I learned your name
|
| Just hope I’ll forever feel this way
|
| And long for just an ordinary day with you |
