When We Believed

(Album: Looking Glass - 2022)

I recall poppies by the road
Vivid color burning in my mind
And I think of who I was then
Who I am now
Who am I now, that I was then?

All the days inside these walls
Licking the wounds of limbs we lost
When we believed we could have it all

Driving East windows rolled down
Off to some small town, we could be anywhere
If you told me where we'd be now
I would now have known how
How can it be?

All the days inside these walls
Licking the wounds of limbs we lost
When we believed we could have it all

All the cities all the valleys crossed
Just to get to another hotel before the sunset
But in this stillness
I can find the joy of a small child
Picking a rosebud and leaving the stem behind

All the days inside these walls
Licking the wounds of limbs we lost
When we believed we could have it all
