I remember, like it was yesterday
when i turned that corner, and saw your face
loves young dream, for all to see
in that crowded room, just you and me
if i close my eyes, i can recall those nights
wrapped in arms, holding on so tight
what went wrong, well, we'll never know
too new to this world, didn't let it grow
but now we're too far out of the woods
too many miles from the neighbourhood
and no amount of these lonely tears
can take us back to those yesteryears
it's been thirty years or more
since you and i closed the door
turned away from what could have been
didn't realise that you were my dream
so our lives went on, but to a different place
i never will forget your beautiful face
they say love is blind, and i couldn't see
that you were the one, so right for me
but now we're too far out of the woods
too many miles from the neighbourhood
and no amount of lonely tears
can give us back those yesteryears
there is no way back, but in my mind
and memories fade, with passing time
am i so wrong to want to keep
you in my mind, when i fall asleep
if i could turn back the hands time
go back to the place where you were mine
if i could ease my heart from all this pain
of too many years filled with rain
but we're too far out of the woods
too many miles from the neighbourhood
and no amount of these lonely tears
can give us back our yesteryears
