Written by John Jackson
So many nights, a single dream
After you had fallen prey to his scheme
You would slowly grow disenchanted
And realize he’s taking you for granted
To my surprise, that dream came true
So I planned to make a grand debut
I set out to win your trust and respect
Nothing less than you’ve a right to expect
When the night grew still and you turned to me
I was struck by the wonder, such compelling intensity
You made me feel like a leading man
When yours was the starring role
It was a case of sheer exhilaration
Above my original goal
There was a love beyond command
And a passion beyond control
When you looked at me
I felt your eyes on my soul
When our choices took us far apart
I stored the feelings in the back of my heart
Years passed, and I began to question
Was it more than just a permanent impression?
Then the answer came quite by chance
Brought together by the circumstance
All I’d hoped for was some lingering affection
Would there be any trace of our connection?
Then the music stopped, and I met your gaze
Instantly it hit me, and my senses were all ablaze
Oh I think you really know me
Oh I think you understand me
I don’t have to say a single word
You see me as I really am
Though our destinies have made us friends
You’ll always have this power that transcends
I’m looking forward to seeing you again
It won’t matter how long it’s been
