Lyrics

Days When

She is a song you used to know
Forgotten lines of long ago
A stranger’s eyes and you fall
Into the arms of someone whose name you can’t recall

I’ll find a way back there
To days when autumn leaves and songs were in the air
I’ll find you there

She had a ring when the world came to
The moon hid its face from the light of noon
Time was sleeping on the lawn
His angel wings painted on

I’ll find a way back there
To days when autumn leaves and songs were in the air
I’ll find you there

They’re calling you from across the park
The light that you held is getting dark
Clouds look down through the trees
And blow your name down the breeze

I’ll find you there
I’ll find you there
I’ll find you there
I’ll find you there

She is a song you used to know
Forgotten lines of long ago
A stranger’s eyes and you fall
Into the arms of someone whose name you can’t recall
