Had we been together we would have danced to the same tune
Holding each other close and dancing the night away
Which made me think of ways to get you to stay.
But we were so far apart we could never be, which made me see the gloom
I remember now what I had wanted and knew that it meant my doom
I knew if I tried to tame you, you would just run away
But when I thought of you and asked you to look at the moon
It was as if we could be and I would have done anything to get you to stay
When I gained my courage I tried with all my heart
Knowing that it might not work for we were so far apart
Yet it didn't matter, I went for my goal
For in the time I spent with you made me think you could read my very soul
I tried to change the game
Which meant I broke the rules
I look at my stupidity now after so long with a lot of shame
I had done the worst thing of all...I played the part King of Fools
What made me break us apart you asked
I remember the hurt I saw in the question
All I can think of now would be this reply...
When we spoke I dreamt I flew through the skies
I dreamt I had you with me, and all I could see was the love in your eyes
That's when I realized I wanted the kind of love that would make me sore higher
So high we would have to look down at the clouds, even if such brought things so dire
Things went wrong... I’ll be the first to admit...
We had the best and the worst in a short time
And after it was over I would gaze, day dreaming into the pit
There was a clock there that showed me these times with a silent chime
A miracle in the making... everything worked out
And know that you're back I have no reason to pout
For you set me free and I waited so that we could be
I love you very much... I just want you to be able to see...
I love you with all that I have to give
And want you to know that only you can take me higher.
