So much time has elapsed,
So much has happened to me,
So much water has gone under the bridge,
And I don't think
I am still the same girl
who once yearned,
Whose heart once ached…
So much time has elapsed,
So much has happened to me,
So much water has gone under the bridge,
And now when I think of you
I feel so ridiculous; you might as well be an axiom of choice
That in my cynical moments I scoff at
And in my sentimental moments I believe in…
Soon we shall meet.
We shall once again
Smile at each other,
Once again
Look into each other's eyes
But I shall not yearn,
I wouldn't be mad
And my heart will not ache…
