Quiet conversations
Words that broke the air
Distant observations
Of what was never there
You were asleep in your favourite chair
Lit by the Tv screen
These things that I remember
From the years in between
The stereo played Denver
Rocky Mountain High
The needle scratched the surface
I wonder if that's why
I'm still out here trying
To work out what it means
Trying to fix what's broken
From the years in between
I wish you could see how
Far these dreams have come
Would you recognise me
From who I was when I was young?
Some say I look a little like you
I left school behind me
moved away to find
If anything could fill this space
you left behind
I found someone who holds me
She's my wife now
She's my queen
She repairs the heartache
From the years in between
I wish you could see how
Far these dreams have come
Would you recognise me
From who I was when I was young?
These days I look a little like you
The last thing I remember
The last time my hands held yours
Medication scattered across the kitchen floor
God, I hope you felt no pain
on that amphetamine
Won't be long 'til I see you
Just a few years in between
It won't be too long until I see you
Just a few years in between
