journey

if i cry when you look at me
it is because many nights
i have looked for you;
lost deep within a dream;

you were gone for so long
when i forgot how to love you;
when i stopped looking;
when sleep was just sleep

at night the sound of a silent song
now quietly carries you back;
and i want to weep, to be
reunited in the morning,
when the first thing i see,
is your smile

if i cry when you look at me
it is because i remember forgetting
how to love you, and because
now i also remember
how i love you
