Lyrics

It's been the longest time
since i've been down this road
said it's been the longest time and baby i can't see your face anymore
the pictures are faded and old
and all i have are childhood memories
of what we used to be
what we used to be

see i've spent too many year
from this simple home
i've spent too many years and i can't see my place here anymore
the pictures are faded and old
and all i have are childhood memories
of what we used to be
and i want to know can i have that back

the afternoons with you
spent in the neighborhood
you used to lift me up so i could see the world beyond the woods
can you remember all the things you said to me
while we sat beneath the sycamore tree
do you recall the way you loved me
could you love me like you did then

i've known you all your life
you've known me all of mine
see what i've found in you baby it's so hard to find
and after all this time
i'm drawn back to childhood memories of what we used to be
and i want to know can i have that back

the afternoons with you
spent in the neighborhood
you used to lift me up so i could see the world beyond the woods
can you remember all the things you said to me
while we sat beneath the sycamore tree
the summers in the sun
the autumn leaves would fall
the winters in your arms just waiting for the spring to come
the secrets that we'd tell
the secrets that we'd keep
the dreams we had even through times when we were not asleep
do you recall the way you loved me
could you love me like you did then
