The summer had inhaled and held its breath too long

The winter looked the same as if it never had gone

And through an open window where no curtain hung



I saw you

I saw you



One begins to read between the pages of a book

The shape of sleepy music and suddenly you're hooked

Through the rain upon the trees that kisses on the run



I saw you

I saw you

Comin' back to me



You can't stay and live my way

Scatter my love like leaves in the wind

You always say that you won't go away

But I know what it always has been

It always has been



A transparent dream beneath an occasional sigh

Most of the time I just let it go by

Now I wish it hadn't begun



I saw you

I saw you

Comin' back to me



Strolling the hills overlooking the shore

I realize I've been here before

The shadow in the mist could have been anyone



But I saw you

I saw you

Comin' back to me



Small things like reasons are put in a jar

Whatever happened to wishes wished on a star

Was it just something that I made up for fun



I saw you

I saw you

Comin' back to me
