That vital night
When you noticed that black dress

My meaning got through
You stared at me
As I stared at you

We walked across the room
Knowing we could never possibly be

although
I didn’t take pleasure
in breaking the rules

what I got
was worth more than jewels

We made a whole new feeling
That night

just for you and me

Yet
Distance managed to estrange our hearts
Leaving us
In absolute uncertainty
what is really meant to be?

you went your way
I went mine

I know you’ll do alright
you know i'll be just fine

but who's to say?
If we could

have reached the top of the mountain
crossed the endless ocean
beat the battle of time
