If You Find It

Consider the tide of times
accounting where to go
reviving the days that went away
there’s things to pass, things to come,
this is what I know
it seems so few things came to stay

Walking the coastline
holding her so close to me
I found it the prettiest place that
I could ever be

But if you find it
bring it on back to me

Its like in a fairy tale
its all so distant now
when I held her in my arms
never such sweet mind,
never such sweet caress
I still cant forget her charms

But if you find it, bring it on back to me

Nobody knows what comes after
it might be true that its all here
echoes of smiles and her laughter
a memory
that I’ve searched for and prayed for
and asked every girl for
prayed for and hoped for and hurt for and..

But if you find it, bring it on back to me

Its like in a fairy tale
its all so distant now
when I held her in my arms
forgetting the grieving,
the cursing, the cries, the wars
try to remember the stairway to the stars

but if you find it Bring it on back to me
