Sailing

Because of you I smiled again today
And took my head out of my hands
I saw the world again that way as I was, in that picture of us
With your hand upon my shoulder
And here we are, innocent & older
I can’t stand the time away from you
But there’s nothing left to do
It’s funny how the years go by
And it’s better now that we don’t have to try
To be what we used to be, so let’s stay with easy
And enjoy each others company
Communication wasn’t an option
Although I thought about you often
Now you’re here in my love seat in the sun
Your straight black hair in my lap
And our silent war is done
It’s funny how the years go by
And it’s better now that we don’t have to try
To be what we wanted to be, so let’s stick with easy
And enjoy each others company
