(Verse 1) An old song found me this morning Sunlight hanging in the room Dust dancing slow across the window Like it remembered something too And there you were Not a face, not a name Just a feeling drifting back to me Soft as summer rain (Chorus) Maybe love was never mine to keep But it was mine to feel And for a moment I touched heaven Long enough to know it’s real Now the tide has gone away The shoreline stands alone But I still feel the waves around my legs Long after I’ve come home (Verse 2) Funny how a melody can find you Years after you’ve moved on And wake the girl who still believed Every promise in a song The tears don’t come from sadness No, they come from somewhere deep For the beauty of a hopeful heart And all the dreams it keeps (Chorus) Maybe love was never mine to keep But it was mine to feel And for a moment I touched heaven Long enough to know it’s real Now the tide has gone away The shoreline stands alone But I still feel the waves around my legs Long after I’ve come home (Bridge) I thought forever lived in love songs I thought every star would stay Now I know some things are only gifts Passing through our hands that way Still I wouldn’t trade the feeling Not for all the world could give Because for one beautiful moment I knew exactly how to live (Outro) Maybe love was never mine to keep… But it was mine… To feel…
