Seems like only yesterday
This world belonged to me
And breathing in your presence
Was evident to me
Hours filled with words
Now silence takes their place
Each time I took for granted
The nearness of your face

I used to touch
And I used to feel
I used to think
That time would heal
Once you were near
But now out of range
I used to love
But things change

Seems like only yesterday
This heart knew what to do
As if it’s only purpose
Was beating just for you
Things I could have said
I never had a chance
Like sandgrains from a distant shore
You slipped right through my hands
