about
This one's for you, Khanom.
lyrics
Sad eyes, soft smile, worlds away
I felt your longing for the day
That you’d fly off and leave your friends behind
I promise once, I promised twice
That we’d run off before your flight
But that’s all lies ‘cause now you’re on your way
Sweet love
Come find me sometime
Come remind me you were mine
Wish I could make you stay
I know you’ve moved on from here
But I feel you with me right now
I still hear your voice, it’s clear
Close my eyes and see you, somehow
Don’t you know that you were my love?
Don’t you know that you were my love?
But now you’re gone, gone for long
You’ve made it home between the sky and sun
I wish you well, I wish you right
But I really wish I could hold you tight
But time is blind to all we wish we could do
Sweet love
Come visit sometime
When it’s warm and you’re feeling right
Wish you’d hadn’t gone away
I know you’ve moved on from here
But I feel you with me right now
I still hear your voice, it’s clear
Close my eyes and see you, somehow
Don’t you know that you were my love?
Don’t you know that you were my love?
But now you’re gone, gone for long
Can you feel my love from here?
Can you hear me calling out loud?
Do my words ring in your ears?
Do you think of me once in a while?
Don’t you know that we were the world?
Don’t you know that you were my world?
But now you’re gone, gone for long
Don’t you know that we were the world?
Don’t you know that you were my world?
But now you’re home between the sky and sun
