Lyrics

It May Have Been

C Em D Em
It may have been the color of the sea,
C G D
the gentle kiss of the morning mist dancing with the dawn,
C Em D Em
That turned my mind to a different time
C G D Em
when we were words, locked in perfect rhyme.

It may have been the jasmine in the air
the scent of raindrops dryin’ in your hair
that turned my mind to a simpler time
when life was just a loaf of bread and a jug of wine.

CHORUS
D Em
I’m not running, I’m not hiding
D Em
I’m just holding dear, the horizon clear
C Em D Em
Watch it drawing near
Lead

It may have been the sound of waves,
wind crashed flat, thunder all around
That turned my mind to a different time
when we were words, searching for a rhyme

it may have been your whispered goodbye
the one that caught us both by surprise.
That turned my mind to a future time
When life is more than memories
wishing for a rhyme.

CHORUS
I’m not running, I’m not hiding
I’m just holding dear, the horizon clear
Oh, I will not fear...
