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 itÂ'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
