By Bob Riley

It's been a long time since I've seen your face
But I keep holding on to the pictures in my mind
I don't mind waiting boy
I'll give it some time
'Cause you're all I need to get by

But you know how time flies
And the dreams just drift away

Chorus:
(And) darlin'
Another breath is whispering
Another voice has taken me in
Another breath is whispering me away

I keep the candle burning
On the window sill
It gets no dimmer with the passing of time
I never moved the furniture
Don't want to rearrange
I'm still living in the rooms of yesterday

Well you can knock on my door
But I don't stay home much any more

('Cause)
Repeat Chorus

But you know how time flies
And the dreams just drift away

Repeat Chorus and fade
