Rights of Passage

Years pass, they change me
See the past in blue and green
Its like I never left you
Its like I never met you
Years pass, they change me
I become, I became, Im yet to be
Its like I never left you
Its like I never met you

But then in the silence
I am caught in a blink
A photograph of you
Holding onto me
Who was I then?
Who would I be?

Years pass, they change me
See the past in blue and green
Its like I never left you
Its like I never met you
Years pass, they change me
I become, I became, Im yet to be
Its like I never left you
Its like I never met you.

But in this empty room
Scattered pieces
Of me and of you
I find that I am still
Part of this place
but outside it
a state of grace.

Years pass, they change me
See the past in blue and green
Its like I never left you
Its like I never met you
Years pass, they change me
I become, I became, Im yet to be
Its like I never left you
Its like I never met you.

I fall down to my knees
begging my heart
to believe me
I was yours and
now I am not
These photographs
are all Ive got.

Years pass, they change me
I am still what I used to be.
Its like I never left you.
Its like I never forget you.
My face, my hair, these lines
But Im still yours deep inside.
Its like I never left you
Its like I can't forget you.
