I can remember when time held still
Breathless anticipation of one sight one smell one glimpse of you
Days were fashioned by such innocent wonder
When life was still so new
Now and again a likeness of those moments
Locked in the archives of my mind
Conjures up those memories of when love was first conceived
And then I stop and find myself asking
Where are you now?
The painter of my youth
Splashing such vibrant colours on the canvas of my past
What a grand filter through which to see
Such a brilliant way you fill my reverie
Where are you now?
Is your smile still soft and warm?
I fell so happily to your subtle charm
The way your eyes would lock with mine
The power of a glance
My unsuspecting heart and mind had very little chance
And if we were to meet once more
To speak, to laugh, to love once more
Would we realize
Would we recognize
The gift that youth exchanged?
Where are you Now?
And if we were to meet once more
To speak, to laugh, to love once more
Would we realize
Would we recognize
The gift that youth exchanged?
Where are you Now?
