Long gone but not far away
A love strong, need it every day
I spend my time waiting for the past
Come save my soul and I'll be free at last

Now it all seems so long ago
But it was only yesterday

Oh, it's a hard way to carry on
Shine your light on me
Oh, but I know that if I am strong
Love will find the way

Time flies, come catch it if you can
Faded words from this broken man
I lay my love gently on the line
If it's the last thing I do I've got to make you mine

Now it all seems so long ago
But it was only yesterday
