Elaine
Sweet lady I remember
doesn't seem that long ago
we were both so young and alive
in love's new born glow
laughing in the sunshine
we could love away the rain
don't you think there's a chance to bring it back again
Started mixing our whiskey
with something much too strong
we both made a turn somewhere
and we both knew it was wrong
I know I left some scars on you
I know how you must feel
Don't you think with some time those scars could heal
but we keep changing like the seasons
and we get uptight for different reasons
but that would make my song too sad
If we gave up on what we had"
Now we both settled down some
and loves' sweet glow is gone
If there ain't some way we can bring it back
I don't know if we can carry on'
There's no fire burning now
but there's still some coals I swear
I know we could get that fire burning
if we gave ourselves some air
So I'm sorry I upset you
I'm sorry that I made a scene
I'm sorry that I got uptight
and said things that I didn't mean
but I never will forget you
and how the time has been
If there was someway I could make it right
I would do it all again
but we keep making up excuses
and it seems like trying would be useless
But I can't picture life without you
I still love everything about you
And we keep changing like the seasons
and we get uptight for different reasons
but that would make my song to sad
If we give up on what we had
sweet lady I remember
doesn't seem that long ago
