What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
In a long and involved conversation with myself
2
I saw precious things come into view
3
And I pored through the files taken off my mental shelf
4
And dusted off some memories of you
5
Then I thought about the time when our affair was green
6
How the phoenix of our love first flapped its silken wings
7
All the urgency and passion
8
Of each new day as it happened
9
And how it all mellowed as it grew
10
I remembered the times when our laughter would explode
11
And how you would turn to hide your smile
12
And the hours of silence while a perfumed candle glowed
13
And both our thoughts meandered on for miles
14
I remembered the times I said I really had to go
15
And I remembered the tears that filled your eyes
16
Then I touched your hand and told you
17
That it really was a lie
18
And though you never knew it dear
19
I cried
20
Well it's amazing how time can so softly change your ways
21
And make you look at things that can't be seen
22
And how the years that roll by can start you listening
23
Not just to what they say
24
But what they mean
25
So forgive me my dear if I seem preoccupied
26
And if the razor edge of youth-filled love is gone
27
But we're both a little older
28
Our relationship has grown
29
Not just in how it's shaped
30
But how its shown
