Summer ’04 we swam
In waters we did not yet understand
Met back again at the end of ‘10
Took a deep breath and dove back in
Should’ve known better’n to begin
Well, I guess I lost my mind
Coming up around Devil’s Slide
Fog so thick, couldn’t see the line
That’s when you left me behind
Just didn’t have the strength to climb
But then again
We’ll see
Maybe you’ll come back to me
We’ll start again
We’ll be
What we were then
Spent a few years just trying to heal
But always something new with which to deal
Wanted your hand, needed strength to stand
Had to take the loss ‘fore I could feel
That love is the answer, love is real
I know you’re better off without the weight
The gravity of some old lover’s fate
But tell me how’s your husband, how’s your son?
Do they know that I was the one?
Don’t you know that I’m still the one?
But then again
We’ll see
Maybe you’ll come back to me
We’ll start again
We’ll be
What we were then
Sit alone and wait on a storm
That old friend I’ve known since I was born
And I watch the silhouetted tree limbs sway
Beyond the black it’s just sort of gray
I’m sure it’s better thataway
