now and then

Blackmore's Night

The past is so familiar
But that's why you couldn't stay

Too many ghosts, too many haunted dreams
Beside you were built to find your own way...

But after all these years, I thought we'd still hold on
But when I reach for you and search your eyes
I see you've already gone...

That's OK
I'll be fine

I've got myself, I'll heal in time
But when you leave just remember what we had...

There's more to life than just you
I may cry but I'll make it through

And I know that the sun will shine again
Though I may think of you now and then...

Can't do a thing with ashes
But throw them to the wind...

Though this heart may be in pieces now
You know I'll build it up again and

I'll come back stronger than I ever did before
Just don't turn around when you walk out that door...

That's OK
I'll be fine

I've got myself, I'll heal in time...but when you leave just remember what we had...

There's more to life than just you
I may cry but I'll make it through

And even though our stories at the end
I still may think of you now and then...
