hey you. it’s good to see you. you look good. your hair’s gotten longer. two years. time just flies by. i’m glad we did this. it’s really been too long.
Goodnight to the city and the sea
To the strangers in the street
Goodnight to the ghost out in the hall
The paint peeling off the wall
Goodnight
Sometimes I stand between the sidewalk and the sky
And just stare into the clouds as they pass by
You have to leave the ground to learn to fly
Goodnight to the TV and the clocks
To the rain that never stops
Goodnight to everyone I know
Shut my eyes and let ‘em go
Sometimes I stand between the sidewalk and the sky
And just stare into the clouds as they pass by
You have to leave the ground to learn to fly
There is something beautiful dying every day
And for the first time in my life I’m not afraid
‘Cause there’s nothing in this world that doesn’t change
Goodnight to the person I have been
To the place that I am in
Goodnight tomorrow, hello to the sun
Are your ready? Here I come *goodnight*
Sometimes I stand between the sidewalk and the sky
And just star into the clouds as they pass by
You have to leave the ground to learn to fly
You have to leave the ground to learn to fly
Thousands of people
Live in this town
And I had to run into him
When I saw him there
On that busy street
Those feelings came back again
There was no where to run
No where to hide
He walked up to me
Looked in my eyes
And still
The world stood still
I couldn’t move
And all I could feel
Was this aching in my heart
Saying I loved him
Still
He said how’ve you been
It’s great to see you again
You’re really a sight for sore eyes
I said I can’t complain
Oh, I’m doin’ fine
We talked
As the people rushed by
We laughed about old times
And all we went through
That’s when he hugged me
And said I’ve missed you
And still
My world stood still
I couldn’t move
And all I could feel
Was this aching in my heart
Saying I loved him
Still
That’s when she walked up to him
He said this is my wife
I gave my best smile
But I was dying inside
He said we gotta go now
It’s getting late
It was so good to see you
And then they walked away
And still
My world stood still
I couldn’t move
And all I could feel
Was this aching in my heart
Saying I loved him
Still
