We would sit and talk all night
Watch shadows flicker in the firelight
We could really put the world to rights
There was us and there was them
I'd sit though movies that would make you cry
We'd be each other's alibi
It was easy never had to try
Life was good back then
We've been scoring Little Victories
In this war of who said what
You said that you forgave me
But I guess that's been forgot
We're counting the points
Trying to catch each other out
And so the battle rages all around
Summer came and took love away
All my arrows seemed to ricochet
September nights at the beech cafe
Are just a distant memory
If we could only get back to when
This doesn't have to be our requiem
If I offered up a prayer
Could I hear you say Amen
