there were days when nothing made me happier than seeing you, and there were nights when nothing that i tried brought me peace from seeing you.

[but time has taken that all away. time has faded everything that i once thought i knew to be true.]

all that i could see was what made sense to me, and even though we were so lost in the gray, i followed you. i always meant to ask, how'd you learn to smile like that and make all the bad, all the bad, go away?

as the days take longer, my memory of everything that's gone grows fonder- [but time has taken that all away. time has faded everything that i once thought i knew to be true: oh, time has taken you.]

I Once Thought I Knew
