A DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW
I remember how I followed you
It seemed you knew the way
We visited those secret streets
Where lovers stop and stay
But time wore out the love we had
Until it wasn’t there
As I walk on alone tonight
I think of what we shared
You said you were upset by the truth
But I looked into your diamond eyes
And saw confusion too
It took me years to figure out
What you always knew
Some day I’d have a different point of view
I’ve studied and I’ve stumbled on
To different things since then
I’ve tried to keep my temper down
My heart is on the mend
I’m learning to pipe down when I have
Nothing more to say
You laugh, but I’m much better off today
Some times I get distracted by
The day to day routine
Then turn around and wonder what
The hell does it all mean
But you know that and all I’ve got
To say then
Is I remember you and how you were when
