In the hazy past somewhere our paths must have crossed,
Though the memory has faded like a rose.
Now I know we can’t reclaim all the time we’ve lost.
Our lives have seen too many long agos.
And if I saw you then, I didn’t see you clear.
I turned away, and soon the moment passed.
But when I see you now, it’s good to know you’re here,
Good to be this close to you at last.
Winter followed Autumn and Summer followed Spring.
This solitary life was all I knew.
How could I imagine that Time would finally bring
A second chance for me to be with you?
And if I met you then, I didn’t catch your name.
I never even wondered what I’d missed.
But since I’ve met you now, my life can’t be the same.
I’ve never longed for anyone like this.
The years when I’d forgotten you and you’d forgotten me,
We couldn’t have foreseen the ways of Fate.
Now it’s led us both to where we were meant to be,
So tell me you believe it’s not too late.
And if I knew you then, I didn’t know you well.
But I can’t let you drift away again,
Because I know you now, and I can already tell
It feels the same as if I knew you then.
