This is an all too
familiar scene
Life imperceptibly
coming between
Those whose love is as strong
as it could or should be
Nothing has altered
Yet everything's changed
No one stands still
Still I love you completely
And hope I always will
Why do we need to put
love into words
Causing confusion
We protest
Explain
Reassure in vain
Come to no conclusion
I'd give the world to stay
just as we are
It's better by far
Not to be too wise
Not to realize
Where there's truth there
will be lies
You and I
We've seen it all
Chasing our hearts' desire
But we go on believing
Nothing can harm us
This is forever
You knew better than me
Where your ambitions would
take us
I knew sooner than you
That those ambitions would
break us
You would not believe me
Why should you believe me
I held you back
You and your dreams
Who needs a dream
Who needs ambition
Who'd be the fool
in my position
Year after year
I'm still denying
Anything's changed
Anything's dying but then
You and I
We've seen it all
Been down this road before
But I go on pretending
Stories like ours
have happy endings
