Lyrics

I came across some letters
Came across some pictures
Came across some memories
Seemed older than the scriptures
Have you checked in all your closets?
Checked in all your drawers?
For some long-forgotten evidence
Of the love and of the war?

It wasn’t long ago
(It’s just the way it seems)
Love ain’t ours to hold
(It’s just the way it seems)

And I don’t see you anymore
(It’s just the way it seems)
I don’t see you in the day
But you’re always in my dreams
I don’t love you anymore
It’s just the way it seems

I took a walk in town today
Down on Waverly & Brewster
Thought I saw you in a small café’
Laughing like we used to
Seems everywhere I go these days, your face is all I see
And I can’t keep from wondering
Do you ever think of me?

It wasn’t long ago
(It’s just the way it seems)
Love ain’t ours to hold
(It’s just the way it seems)

And I don’t see you anymore
(It’s just the way it seems)
I don’t see you in the day
But you’re always in my dreams
I don’t love you anymore
It’s just the way it seems
