Norm Crouse - Fifteen Years Lyrics

After fifteen years you'd think we'd learn
Can't change direction without making a turn
Only two choices; give up or keep trying
Fine is the line 'tween laughing and crying
Can't grow closer while you're moving apart
No new beginnings without a new start

Fifteen years we traveled together
Fifteen years all we went is around
Fifteen years we tried to uncover
Fifteen years and nothing's been found

Both done things wrong; but what to do now?
Take that first step if we only knew how
Say what we feel; forget what we know
Learn to adapt; or learn to let go
Write some new words to the same old sad song
That's been punctuated with clear right and wrong

Fifteen years we traveled together
Fifteen years all we went is around
Fifteen years we tried to uncover
Fifteen years and nothing's been found

Fifteen years; we're back at the start
No room for blaming. We've both done our part
Hug and shake hands; part now as friends
Fresh beginnings from a pair of stale ends
Can't just keep smiling; try to carry on
Pretending to stay when we're already gone

Fifteen years we traveled together
Fifteen years all we went is around
Fifteen years we struggled to talk
Fifteen years without making a sound
