Lyrics
VERSE: I took an old familiar seat by the window
In that cafe at the edge of town
The couples walking by saw their reflection
They couldn't see my face and I couldn't hear the sound
CHORUS: Of hearts beating together
Of lovers daring to dream
Promising each other forever
But always isn't always what it seems
VERSE: I took a wrinkled strip of pictures from my wallet
Of the pair most likely to succeed
An amusement park memento from a simple time
Once a silly souvenir now they remind me
CHORUS
BRIDGE: We promised each other a lifetime
How could I have let you down
I fell in love the moment I saw you
Now it's gonna take a lifetime to forget the sound
CHORUS
Karl Williams (ASCAP) / R.C.Welsh (ASCAP)
