| When the candle at my table
|
| Cast it’s light upon your face
|
| And suddenly I recognised you
|
| Well it took my breath away
|
| And for an hour you were mine again
|
| And it was like a dream
|
| Holding hands across the table
|
| And the years.
|
| You had stepped out of the darkness
|
| Like a ghost out of my past
|
| But it seems like only yesterday
|
| Since I had seen you last
|
| I was caught up in your smile
|
| And the way you made me feel
|
| It was like a night from ten years ago
|
| Yes it could have been ten years ago.
|
| From the trembling of my hands
|
| It could have been ten years ago
|
| Then you were gone and once again I am alone.
|
| Crying for a love with you that never was
|
| How good it could have been ten years ago.
|
| Well you ask all about me
|
| And you told me all your plans
|
| And though you never mentioned him
|
| I saw the ring upon your hand
|
| Oh but I couldn’t help it Lord I fell in love again
|
| Just the way I fell ten years ago.
|
| Yes it could have been ten years ago.
|
| From the trembling of my hands
|
| It could have been ten years ago
|
| Then you were gone and once again I am alone.
|
| Crying for a love with you that never was
|
| How good it could have been ten years ago
|
| Yes it could have been ten years ago. |
