Did I forget, or have I really lost my mind.
Should I care about anybody's soul but mine?
It's true that time will heal my crimes
But it don't have the time to heal me
Hey old lady, remember the boy you once knew?
Well, he grew up loving no one else but you
He didn't watch you grow, doesn't think of you as old
Just a young girl he never got to know
...
Oh but I haven't seen you in years
...
Oh but I haven't seen you in years
I talk and talk to anyone who's listening.
I tell those ears I'm finally finishing,
Wrapping gifts for all the holidays I missed.
Happy birthday, for every single year.
It's a crazy world and we're both stuck in it.
Take my hand and I will rescue you from it.
Into this perfect world, where you're dressed in pearls.
We'll get married before our families in a church.
...
Oh but I haven't seen you in years
...
Oh but I haven't seen you in years
It's been long but I still obsess.
It might be weird but I must confess.
I've been sick. There's something wrong with me
For thinking you're every tan brunette I see.
I dream how you look like now.
I haven't seen you in years.
