We Did

Another day's last breath without you
And the riddle goes still unsolved
I'd strike a candle and dream about you
But i feel there's no light at all
Take me back just one more mile
Reassure me with your smile

When I remember all the things we did
I'm torn between a tear and shifty grin
Long for the days when not a care prevail
We did it all - it seems as if a tale
The memory steals away like a thief
I seize the moment knowing life is brief
It always makes me feel i'm young again
To reminisce about the things we did

My nerve and poise stood strong beside you
What a wide world within our swing
You looked after me, and sometimes i you
Roam the town like a pair of kings
Send me back just one more time
Stoke the gathering with your mind

When I recall the magic turns we knew
I reach the sky above, then hell below
Halfway between dead end and giddy spin
Long for the days when doubt we cast to wind
I seize the moment because life is brief
A glimpse of you with me, I'm over the grief
It makes me feel just like a kid again,
Evoking scenes from all the things we did

When i recall the wondrous stuff we did
I'm torn between heartache and silly grin
I miss the days when not a care prevail
We did it all - it seems as if a tale
The memory steals away just like a thief
I seize the day because our lives are brief
It always makes me feel I'm young again
To reminisce about the things we did

I know you're watching and want to tell me
For your wisdom it's never too late
I say this now, lest my words fail me
You're still here, in a different state
Amplify the story line
Illuminate us with your shine
