Even If

(album: Wild Heart Of The Young - 1982)

Where have the dreams gone
Where are the love songs
Just a world I used to know
My love has lost you
The cost I would not see
Until I learned something that's not free

Even if you took my hand
You couldn't lead me
Even if you touched my heart
I wouldn't cry
Even if you'd understand
It wouldn't free me
Even if you gave me wings
I couldn't fly

Maybe it's growing old
Something starts going cold
And the years just fade away
I used to feel so young
Now all I feel is numb
Played a game nobody ever won

Maybe some day, when you look in my eyes again
You'll find the love never died
If there's a way to break through it all again
And find the life that I left behind
