You know I found you there
With the warm light in your hair
As I reached out my hand for you
You smiled and my broken heart fell in two

They say it was easier then
You were already my friend
But you'd become something much too deep
Those nights when I watched you fall asleep

So where are you living now?
I still wait for your hand somehow
And when my mind drifts way back then
To when you were more than my friend

I remember you by my side
When the waves of the world just passed me by
My hand squeezed by yours in mine
I thought that you would walk with me there for all time

So intense and so demanding
So in love and so enchanting
You've got all your hooks in me
But let me go
Let me go

What did I do, what did I say?
Tried everting for to make you stay
But you still slipped out of my hand
Was walking for the darkness in a stranger's land

Told our friends at the rising sun
It was the hardest thing you've ever done
And though life's taken you far away
I've thought of you every single day

So where are you living now?
I still watch for your eyes somehow
And when my mind drifts way back then
To when you were more than my friend

I remember you by my side
When the waves of the world just passed me by
My hand squeezed by yours in mine
I thought that you would walk with me there for all time

I remember you by my side
When the waves of the world just passed me by
My hand squeezed by yours in mine
I thought that you would walk with me there for all time
