Things seem so much better when they're not part of your close surroundings. Like words in a letter sent, amplified by the distance. Possibilities and sweeter dreams, sights and sounds calling form far away, calling from far away. I didn't know you then, now did I girl? I couldn't hear you singing softly to me. I didn't know you then, now did I girl? I didn't see the brave girl so near me. I didn't know you then, now did I girl? I couldn't hear you sing softly to me. I wanted a mystery that couldn't be solved, I wanted a puzzle with pieces missing. I wanted a story that couldn't be told, only the fishing part of fishing. I didn't know you then, now did I girl? I couldn't hear you singing softly to me. I didn't know you then, now did I girl? I didn't see the brave girl so near me. I didn't know you then, now did I girl? I couldn't hear you sing softly to me. And now I find it was you all the time. I'm in love again it's too late now...
