The World I Knew.

I've got this story and it's almost finished,
I just need someone to tell it to.
Maybe that's you.

I've finally found a safe place,
A place to be me.

Let's take a trip back in time,
to memories, too long caged in.

Those pictures of time,
wrapped in a tiny frame.
That world we knew,
Was like a time share spent every summer, but lived every day.

The loves, those joys, with you, I had you...
We had it all.
It felt like a dream,
Yet it was real.
The sunshine on my face,
those summer breezes not often enough felt,
Yet like shots adrenaline you revitalized my spirit.

Home.
Skinny dipping in lakes, canoeing, Cliff jumping,
Near life experiences, man that was close.
Yet I wouldn't trade it for the world.

We're only just as happy as everyone else thinks we are,
Yet how much fun it always was.

Those summer sunsets, always spent till those morning sunrises.
Oh how it feels like sunshine..
The Happiness.
You could see it.
I could see you,
Even they knew..

The world we knew,
was 2 hours north,
an hour east,
with those ventures south.
Yet that world,
holds me true,
holds me firm.

We were together then,
Yet I let you down.
But, I'll never give in.
That sunshine will come again.

The Open road is still miles away.
With the miles of end ocean,
To the trips into the open expanses,
The never ending heights,
and never ending hills.
To the jungles of the Orient Pearl,
With The Peach state always on my mind..
To those rolling plains of Wyoming,
To the Mile high town,
and into the Best Snow's on earth.

It still feels like sunshine,
That world forever gone,
but we are still happy,
even they know it.

Now my world is freezing.
The Mountains are ever tall,
The hours spent,
Won't ever end.
Life has changed after all,
I've almost lost myself in it,
Yet it still feels like sunshine.
Even After it all, they still think we're happy.

I still had my fun,
even though it was then,
With them by my side.
I'm a little shamed for asking,
Yet I do need help,
Just a little helps,
You may not even realize it,
but man it helps.

That world I knew,
forever gone,
yet here I am and
here you are.

Don't it feel like sunshine after all?
It does,
Let's just enjoy this.
Let's close our eyes,
and pictures of those times long gone..
Now picture that world we knew..

To you,
my heart.
To you,
My love.
To you,
my friends.
To you,
my soul.

you all were there, through it all, inside it all.

And now...
To: You,
You are still out there somewhere,
and love is there.
So to you, we'll find each other someday.
I'll be patient..

With the sunshine on my face,
and the summer breeze back in my hair.
I'll take all of this and leave it forever in my heart.
I'll go back to that time,
Rather, I'll go back to that feeling.
and we'll take all of this with us to the future...

Windows have closed,
Windows have opened.
The world I knew may be forever gone,
But that Sunshine...

It's still sunshine after it all.
