It's you and me
and so much in between
all tangled up in the passage of time
Trust and blame, feelings with no name
Fighting it out in the back of my mind

And I'm looking for you in each familiar place
Dreaming of you, but I come up empty when I wake

Oh how I reach
for the way things used to be
Oh I believe in the way things used to be
Oh how I need to find you next to me
The way things used to be

Hope and fear, both ringing in my ear
the bells of the lonely shakin' my soul
Hide and seek, the words we never speak
The heart is a traveler headed for home

And I'm looking for you in each familiar place
Dreaming of you, but I come up empty when I wake

Oh how I reach
for the way things used to be
Oh I believe in the way things used to be
Oh how I need to find you next to me
The way things used to be

A word, a call
Am I climbing just to fall
the light's in your eyes
Am I fading from view?

And I'm looking for you in each familiar place
Dreaming of you, but I come up empty when I wake

Oh how I reach
for the way things used to be
Oh I believe in the way things used to be
Oh how I need to find you next to me
The way things used to be
