Having a conversation in my head
as if you were still there planning all the things I would have said
Wandering along the road of life
I realise it’s a cul de sac and there’s no way back
How has all this passed it’s later than it seems
I yearn for a glance now I long for what might have been
your voice came to me and woke me from a dream
asking for the tunes of when we were just sixteen
So I go on wondering any way I feel
should I stay settle here sleep away the years
the pictures on the wall they keep talking in my head
but they’re talking too loud to hear what is being said
How has all this passed it’s later than it seems
I yearn for a glance now I long for what might have been
your voice came to me and woke me from a dream
asking for the tunes of when we were just sixteen
I wander on shrouded in a mist on ghosts who once were there
you shine through the haze saying you always cared I just stood and stared
my mouth slack with unbelieving but why would you be deceiving
I realised what I’d been fearing I thought
the cul de sac was forced on me hearing your voice
but all along it was my choice
How has all this passed it’s later than it seems
I yearn for a glance now I long for what might have been
your voice came to me and woke me from a dream
asking for the tunes of when we were just sixteen
