Been a While

Been a while since you and I
sat beneath an unbroken sky
still in the tremble hand in hand,
panned the fool’s gold stream.

Seems like ages since the two of us
teamed up against the years
and just watched the notes of music roll
right off our tongues into the dream.

Been too long. Too long.
But now you’re here.
Don’t let me loose just yet.
Been too long. Too long.
Since we sang that song we wrote
the night we met.

Been a while since you and I
bet against the break of day.
But it’s all I can do, it’s all I can remember
is that look on your face when you play.

Say hello before you go disappearing
down the fast lane.
At least, again, at last, say Yes
let me just remember you that way.

Been too long. Too long.
But now you’re here.
Don’t let me loose just yet.
Been too long. Too long.
Since we sang that song we wrote
the night we met.
