Maybe This Would Have Been Your Year

Acrylic memories are
All that's left
Since you stepped into the light

Water color moments seem
Quick to fade
The beauty remains
But the figures morph and change

Maybe this would have been your year
Maybe this would have been your year
If we all painted pictures of the ones we loved
And the ones we've lost

The corridors would rain a thousand
Splendid colors
The streets shine iridescent in the night

Maybe this would have been your year
(Maybe, maybe)
Maybe this would have been your year
Maybe this would have been your year
(Maybe, maybe)
Maybe this would have been your year

Why'd you step into the light
Why'd you have to let us go
Why the premonitions
The visions that screamed so many years before
If only I could go back in
Let the water replace all my sin
If only the waves could turn
And each moment fall further from the shore
Oh how I long to hold you tight
How it plagues me every night
And grows with every dream and every scene you're missing, well

Maybe this could have been your year
Maybe this would have been your year
Maybe
Maybe
Maybe this would have been your year
Maybe
Maybe
Maybe, oh
Maybe
Maybe
Maybe this would have been your year
Maybe this would have been your year
Maybe this could have been your year
