Years
by Kye Fleming and Dennis Morgan;
changes by Debra Milligan
Faded photographs
The feelings all come back
Even now,
sometimes,
You feel so near.
And I still see your face
like it was yesterday
It’s strange how the days
turned into years.
Years of hanging on
hanging on
to dreams
halfway gone
Years
of wishing
you were
here.
After all this time
so much time
You’d think I wouldn’t cry
But I still love you
after all these
years.
Nighttime gently falls
Another day is gone
I turn around to find
You’re still not here.
I leave the hall light on
in case you come back
home,
I’ve been saying that
for years.
Years of hanging on
to dreams
not fully gone
Years
of wishing you were
here
After all this time
I’m not gonna mind
Cause I still love you
After all these years
Yes, I still love you
After all these years.
