Lyrics:
Our paths hadn't crossed since high school days
When I saw your smile light up in a crowd
We chose a place in Quinn's Cafe
Was is it really all that long ago
We talked about trivial things
About the kids and some old friends
Somehow the bond between us wasn't cut
I saw the woman you've become
Surprising that you still look young
Like it's been yesterday since we broke up
I wish I could have told you how beautiful you are
there's something in your eyes beyond compare
I wish you would have urged me to push it bit too far
I'd liked to hold you close but didn't dare
I wanted you to know that my heart never let you go
But I couldn’t find the words I‘d liked to say
I guess you know it anyway
In those dreamy teenage days you broke my heart
It took some time to bleach out all the blue
Wrote a new song for another girl with my guitar
But it never felt the way it did with you
And in my dreams I drew your face
Kept memories in a secret place
Somehow I'd hoped I'd get a second chance
Years flew by like falling stars
Time has left some itchy scars
Still I'd gave the world to hold your hands
I wish I could have told you how beautiful you are
There’s something in your eyes beyond compare
I wish you would have urged me to push it a bit too far
I'd liked to hold you close but didn't dare
I wanted you to know that my heart never let you go
But I couldn’t find the words I‘d liked to say
I guess you know it anyway
When they called for closing time
A million stars were in the sky
And neither of us knew
An easy way to say goodbye
I wish I could have told you how beautiful you are
There's something in your eyes beyond compare
I wish you would have urged me to push it a bit too far
I'd liked to hold you close but didn't dare
I wanted you to know
That my heart never let you go
But the words I came up with sound cliche
I guess you know it anyway
