We’ve been here before,
so it seems,
you and I;
So many tears ago.

But it was not this place,
not these eyes,
not these hearts;
So many fears ago.

We stood in the wrong place,
gazed into the wrong eyes,
ached for the wrong heart;
So many cares ago.

Though it seems
we’ve been here before,
you and I,
So many years ago.

This is the right place, we are here together.
These are the right eyes, clearly we see each other.
These are the right hearts, they beat as one;
So many beats to go.
