After All These Years

After All These Years   

By Paul McCann

 

Finally it happened after all these years 

I got a note from behind a wall of fears

A message on my phone came just before

just before new years  from

someone I love after all these years

 

After all of these years a new light brightly shone through

a crack on an old window of time

After all of these years I can see a new day has come

and the sunshine is yours and mine   .

 

Its hard to put into words , its hard to push back the tears

Its beautiful when  love appears

From out of the darkness of the past

We’re safe again as the storm of life finally clears .

 

Like a blinding light I saw the miracle of love

That lifted me after all these years .

 Shining so bright , the new light of love

 May it shine forever as yesterday disappears   .

 

It’s new years eve and everything’s changed

for the better and not the worst ,

after all these years ,  

 

After all these years who’d have thought

after we loved

after we fought ,

after we sold and bought ,

after all we were taught

after the dreams that we caught  

after all these years who would have thought .

you would have come back to me

after all the things we did

and after the things we said

has not changed the way we still feel

after all these years

the truth remains our love is not dead .

After all these years you came back to me

After all these years I never thought I would see

Your face again , but you came back to me

Life still full of surprises after all these tears .
