Eighth Try At Eden

I'm so afraid to remember
But I don't want to forget
How you looked at me
How we came to be

Sometimes it's just emotion
Welling up from within
Shining moments in time
When everything was fine

If I could just hear your laugh
If I could just see you smile
I'd be happy again
This time I'd stay a while

Instead of running away
Instead of causing you pain
Instead of taking your sunshine
And leaving you in the rain

I know I can't change the past
But I can change who I am
When I wake up tomorrow
I'll try to be a new man

You said it's only a dream
One that no one should have
People break up and make up
But we eventually wake up...

...to morning again

Feel the weight of the world
As I open my eyes
I look over my shoulder
You're outshining the sun!

Now I'm hearing your laugh
And now I'm seeing you smile
I am happy again
I'll be here a long, long while
