Too Much Time

Is it really that simple

After all this time?

To go back to the start…

Then, I’d hoped you’d be mine.

I would see you

My heart and my soul would soar

Hear your voice, feel you near

and want so much more.

For a long time, I felt that

But just couldn’t say

Then you met someone else

So, it wasn’t our day.

Now you’re here. Now you’re back

And it’s just not the same

My heart doesn’t skip

When I hear your name.

You’ve not changed? You’re the same

The change is in me.

I can’t switch on my feelings

The heart’s fickle you see.

So, it’s really not that simple

After all this time

To go back to the start

Now you want to be mine.
