Oh it’s so hard to believe
like a bad dream you cannot wake from
Cause we used to sing songs together
and weather the changes that come
If life apart is impossible
And I know anything’s possible
We’ll wait five years
and meet on the very spot we once called home
And I went from passionate lover
to father and brother to her
And she kept her magic from me for
what seemed like an eternity
If life apart is impossible
And I know anything’s possible
We’ll wait five years and meet
on the very spot we once called home
Now you have got to understand
We had dropped each other’s hand so long ago
And sunk into a deep despair
Nobody in love should ever know or feel
It’s sad but only in the sense
We were young and innocent back then
And we were a storybook couple,
the kind of stuff dreams are made on
Yeah living proof that love exists,
we could have inspired you
But something failed in our master plan
And far away our happiness ran
It took so long to see what I’d really never seen before
Now you have got to understand
We had dropped each other’s hand so long ago
And sunk into a deep despair
Nobody in love should ever know or feel
It’s sad but only in the sense
We were young and innocent back then
I never once towards the end saw the friend
that she could have been
And she was too angry to see
all the patience she needed from me
If life apart is impossible
And I know anything’s possible
We’ll wait five years and meet
on the very spot we once called home
Now you have got to understand
We had dropped each other’s hand so long ago
And sunk into a deep despair
Nobody in love should ever know or feel
It’s sad but only in the sense
We were young and innocent back then
And if there is a change of heart
let me introduce you to the plan
