Now we’re in the winter of our years
Hearts grow colder and the feelings disappear
Our lives get complicated by things we can’t control
Happiness is overrated when it’s bought and sold.
And here we are Together yet alone
Seems like those old dreams kinda came and went
Can we dream some new dreams or is this the end
And here we are Love letter never sent
Can’t live with Love and you can’t live without
That’s what I’ve heard some people talking about
To be in Love is something you can’t ever keep
Maybe their feelings don’t run very deep
And here we are Awake yet asleep
Time to build some new dreams from feeling I have found
Time to dance again and spin you round and round
And here we are Love lost and now found
