lyrics

Summer sun six years ago
The wind danced through the trees
Open eyes and wandering hearts were bound
In the mystery

Of the trials and of the miles
Of possibility
A stack of mental photographs
Washed out, but not thrown away

Oh, I know, the times we shared were beautiful
All the fond memories

Stretching paths that branch apart
Beyond infinity
Walking through the sparkling night in search
Of anything

These days will pass and fade away
Confined to memory
Shapes and sounds that were born now live
Only in our dreams

Oh, I know, the times we shared were beautiful
All the fond memories
Oh, I know, the dreams we shared were beautiful
I think of you each day
