singing softly to me

things seem so much better when

they're not part of your close surroundings. like words in a letter sent

amplified by the distance. possibilities and sweeter dreams

sights and sounds calling form far away

calling from far away. i didn't know you then

now did i girl?

i couldn't hear you singing softly to me. i didn't know you then

now did i girl?

i didn't see the brave girl so near me. i didn't know you then

now did i girl?

i couldn't hear you sing softly to me. i wanted a mystery that couldn't be solved

i wanted a puzzle with pieces missing. i wanted a story that couldn't be told

only the fishing part of fishing. i didn't know you then

now did i girl?

i couldn't hear you singing softly to me. i didn't know you then

now did i girl?

i didn't see the brave girl so near me. i didn't know you then

now did i girl?

i couldn't hear you sing softly to me. and now i find

it was you all the time. i'm in love again

it's too late now.
