How could I see,you and me
Lasting so long, hold on
It could only mean
It's happening all over again.
How did I know, we'd know
Lasting so long, what's wrong?
No more tears now, somehow
They've all gone.
I could take you, you could take me
We could run away, so very far away
Beyond our wildest dreams
And other things you and me.
[CHORUS]
So here we are, so far
No closer to the truth than walking to the moon
Treating life as if it was a silver spoon
Hold on, hold on...
If I could tell you, maybe help too
I could save the smiles that hide the smiles
We put on to show, so no one knows
What we feel.
So let me show you, I can grow too
Maybe settle down, no more foolin' around
We could share the dreams
And everything too.
And I could take you, you could take me
We could run away, so very far away
No one could catch us
Or trap us ever again.
[CHORUS]
But here we are, so far
No closer to the truth than walking to the moon
Treating life as if it was a silver spoon
Hold on, hold on...

This is a very beautiful and emotion-filled song. I love it. You did an excellent job in writing this. Keep up the excellent work and I look forward to reading more from you, so if it's not a prob. add me as a fav. and I will do the same so that I could be blessed with the capability of reading more from you as my contest progresses. May God bless you in all that you do and write. Good luck to you and this song in my contest.
