From the recording Cheeky
Lyrics
It’s been a long time since you’ve been around
You said when you left you won’t come back to this town
Now I look through the haze of this old saloon
And I could swear I was looking at you
It’s been a long time since we talked until dawn
That’s when you told me that you needed more
Now I stare through the dirt of this empty glass
And staring back are the eyes of the past
No those kids will never make it, we always heard
As we strolled down the street to that old school yard
Now I gaze upon the windows of the house you used to live
And all I see is what could have been
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen your face
What a high price to pay for letting you leave this place
Now I wish upon the stars for it all to had last
But all I see are through the eyes of the past
All I see are through the eyes of the past
