lyrics

If I could see, with your eyes as I do with my own
I would forgive your faults
And forget all your lies I would wrap
Up your wounds
In bandages of gauze
I would be there beside you
All the night long, all the night long

If I could love, with your heart as I do with my own
I would see your intent
So clear to me now I would take
Your tired hands
And put them in my own
I would be there beside you
All the night long, all the night long

But this cannot be
We are islands at sea
Didn’t know all of you
Nor did you know all of me, all of you, all of me

If I could see, with your eyes as I do with my own
I would answer these questions
And I would come to understand why
I’d break through the wall
That divides us in two
I would never desert you
Never again, never again

But this cannot be
We are islands at sea
Couldn’t take all of you
Nor could you take all of me, all of you, all of me

All the islands at sea
All the things that can’t be
‘Cause we can’t stop the sifting of time

The currents are shifting
Apart we are drifting
We can’t stop the sifting of time

They say time heals all
And I’ve got time
