They think I'm crazy for still holding on
and I know they're probably right
but they don't know words exchanged in the dark
They only know what they know
Maybe there's a time, maybe there's a way to let it all go and let love be waylaid
Maybe there's a day but I don't see how
It doesn't feel close to me
The crying is over the silence has come as I realize there's nothing to be done
You have forgotten the path to the place where we carved our names and our love
...
I'm not the woman he met at the start
He may not be the man who I thought
but life keeps on going, there's breeze enough
to push these sails along
Maybe there's a time, maybe there's a way to let it all go and let love be waylaid
Maybe there's a day but I don't see how
It doesn't feel close, it doesn't feel close, no it doesn't feel close to me
