Em                A
I got by but I’m tired of myself
     Em                     A
And doubt that I ever will find someone else
Em                      A                       C
Lonely days fall like drops in the lake of our love
        B7                   Am
I just want it to be like it was

       B7                    Am        B7
And I want you to be as you were long ago

I go down to the edge of the lake
Where I wait through the night for
the dawn light to break
Memories of old crash like waves on
the shore of my mind
And I pray that the stars will align

I just want us to be who we were long ago

Chorus:
        Em   Bm   A
I just want what was
        C                           B           B7
How I yearn for the years we were young and in love

I get by, but it's hard to forget
In the smoke of denial and the fog of regret
Dismal and darksome like clouds in
the sky of my soul
And I hear thunder roll

I look up at the uncaring sky
With a prayer on my lips and a tear in my eye
Oh, how the heart burns like fire in the light
of the moon
I just hope you'll be comin' back soon

Chorus:
You're my long-lost love
Can we wind back the wheels to the way that it was?
