I Haven't Played This Song In Years

Just beyond my windowpane, I saw you
 Walking in the rain away from me
 Visions of your future lay before you
 You are free
 I saw you in the company of strangers
 Laughing just a little bit too loud
 Looking at reflections in a mirror
 I can see the smiling faces
 But not me among the crowd
 Wondering how
 I wish that I could play this like a love song
 So I could shape it like I wanted to
 I'd make it purely from the heart
 I know that surely from the heart
 There only comes the gentlest of tunes
 But where are you?
 We tried to set the world on fire
 And almost did with our desire
 Two of us and maybe more
 Kids inside a candy store
 Sparks of joy and celebration
 Suddenly we're drowned beneath the tears
 And baby, you're the reason that
 I haven't played this song in years
 Yes baby, you're the reason that
 I haven't played this song in years
 Some believe in magic potions
 Heads all full of crazy notions
 Castles built upon a sandy shore
 Only magic I believe in
 Is the magic I receive from
 Loving you and needing nothing more
 Nothing more
 We never heard each other's cries
 That's how lovers turn to lies
 When I gave, you wanted more
 Then suddenly we're keeping score
 I forgave your small deceptions
 Till I couldn't hide my deepest fears
 And baby, you're the reason that
 I haven't played this song in years
 yes baby, you're the reason that
 I haven' t played this song in years
