About the song
I have dreamed of my past...this is a portion of it....
Lyrics
Why is it so hard to see that you were only meant for me
I know that we live together but in truth we feel we never see
Our love is up into the everlasting firmaments of yesterday
And if you can remember all that we saved from the decay

Of love and the internal lashings and the unsettled dust of yesterdays ashes
Reaching out for the time just right to say

Do you see that we only have the here and now
We can build a new foundation upon this hallowed ground
Towards dusk and through the nighttime we will be just like we are
We can build forever friend just let me show you how

Until we see how hard it is to suffer
When do you feel that life is under
Our time is gone and we are slow to find

How do you seek the shelter in a world of grief and strife and rage?
What is it that you yell for when you want to reinvent a craze
Of yesterday and all its foibles time forgets and is built anew
I don’t think you look for shelter and the time we have are but drops of dew

Of love and the internal lashings and the unsettled dust of yesterdays ashes
Reaching out for the time we find just right to say

Do you see that we only have the here and now
We can build a new foundation upon this hallowed ground
Towards dusk and through the nighttime we will be just like we are
We can build forever darling just let me show you how

Until we see how hard it is to suffer
When do you feel that life is under
Our time is gone and we are slow to find
