Sleepless Replay in My Soul

Last night I opened up my mind
And saw the photos of long ago.
Memories of love and joy
Mixed with the pain and sorrow
Thumbed through the pages with my mind
Remembering what I wanted to hold
And this is what happens to me
When I replay my life in my soul

Saw again the first day I met you
Saw again the first day I made you cry
Felt the shame for my selfish actions
And saw again the day we said goodbye
I also saw the moments of happiness
Saw the moments worth more than gold
And felt your hand touch my face
In the replay in my soul.

There's a lot to be said that never came out
A lot to be done that wasn't done.
But we still managed to stay together
Still managed to have a lot of fun
I wonder now what happened
What destroyed the relationship so old
And now I see the tears and rain falling
As part of the replay in my soul

It's been ages since I saw you last
Ages since our last good-bye
The memory lasts forever though
And I get to wonder why
I hear you've got a family now
And you're happy you've achieved your goal
Though I said goodbye, and I would never cry
I weep…in the sleepless replay in my soul.
