So many years ago

I held your hand in the snow

Love was so simple and true

When all that I needed was you

Holding me close by your side

Smiling and watching the tide

But things are much different today

I wish that I could have made you stay

 

I wonder if you think of me

I wonder where you could be

On a cold December night

With all the stars in sight

I’ll make a wish on one

To bring you to me with the sun

So we can hold hands again

And be in love like we were then

 

So many years ago

You told me you had to go

On warm Spring day

There wasn’t a thing I could say

To change your mind

To leave me behind

But now things are much different today

I wish that I could have made you stay
