As I sit here below the light   And write these words to you   And I’m thinking how time just flies    Years of yesterdays all feel like they’re new      I remember those cold cold nights   Felt like they started at noon   We only saw pitch black,    Not the man in the moon      Now we look from the outside    We’ve distanced the pain   We’ve boxed disappointments and put them away   We don’t cry anymore   And every once in a while there’s a smile      Now don’t let expectations   Fill the room of your heart   It’ll shape it and break it   Till we’ve drifted apart      Now we look from the outside    We’ve distanced the pain   We’ve boxed disappointments and put them away   We don’t cry anymore   And every once in a while there’s a smile      Now we look from the outside    We’ve distanced the pain   We’ve boxed disappointments and put them away   We don’t cry anymore   And every once in a while      Now there’s a Smile here this afternoon   As I write these words to you   In a while, with our hope renewed   We look up to sky   Just you and I   and the man in the moon
