Remember when you walked out into the rain
The railroad and the sky were calling your name
Can you hear them whisper:

"Come and get lost with us"
You've been chasing shadows in your hometown
You searched for answers that refused ever to be found

So you compromised and found a new horizon
Ever since you left you're always on my mind


So here's to you if you care to listen
Here's to you, let me cross the distance


Even if you're not here
I'll reach you, I'll reach you
Even though you're away, I'm near

We'll forgive and forget
I'll reach you


Seven years and seven days you've been gone
Seven years of changing faith and opinion
Would you recognize me

If you walked beside me?
I would keep on waiting
It's been to long


Here's to you if you care to listen
Here's to you, let me cross the distance


Even if you're not here
I'll reach you, I'll reach you

Even though you're away, I'm near
We'll forgive and forget
I'll reach you


Even if you're not here
I'll reach you, I'll reach you

Even though you're away, I'm near
We'll forgive and forget
I'll reach you


I'll reach you...
