In a dream I saw you there but you had chorn your golden hair
Your beauty had been tarnished by the years
We paused a while no words exchanged for I had let you down again

In sorrow stood and wept our bitter tears

I dream of tears that we may cry

Seen an older you and I
Ruined by the years
I dream of tears


I hope that this will never be never come to you and me
But dreams are sometimes shadows of the truth

Time must come and ravage all minds will tumble senses fall
It's hard to see it in the face of youth


I dream of tears that we may cry
Seen an older you and I
Ruined by the years

I dream of tears



I can't turn my mind away of what we will become one day
And the thought that we'll be lonely when we fall
Your face so lined proves love's not blind it's only people who've been kind

Pretending they don't notice after all

I dream of tears that we may cry

Seen an older you and I
Ruined by the years
I dream of tears
