Did I forget, or have I really lost my mind.
Should I care about anybody s soul but mine?
It s true that time will heal my crimes
But it don t have the time to heal me
Hey old lady, remember the boy you once knew?
Well, he grew up loving no one else but you
He didn t watch you grow, doesn t think of you as old
Just a young girl he never got to know
...
Oh but I haven t seen you in years
...
Oh but I haven t seen you in years
I talk and talk to anyone who s listening.
I tell those ears I m finally finishing,
Wrapping gifts for all the holidays I missed.
Happy birthday, for every single year.
It s a crazy world and we re both stuck in it.
Take my hand and I will rescue you from it.
Into this perfect world, where you re dressed in pearls.
We ll get married before our families in a church.
...
Oh but I haven t seen you in years
...
Oh but I haven t seen you in years
It s been long but I still obsess.
It might be weird but I must confess.
I ve been sick. There s something wrong with me
For thinking you re every tan brunette I see.
I dream how you look like now.
I haven t seen you in years.
