Genesis - You Might Recall lyrics

What was it you said to me

Back in the days when things looked fine

'bout how we would be together

Until we left the earth behind

Oh, it's funny how things can change

Cos there was a time I thought I'd be the one

Who'd leave and start again

But now I'd stay forever

Ooh my hopes are as the leaves upon the water

Just sunk in the night

And though I know you couldn't care, you oughtta

Ah, the end of a life

Or maybe when you're older, and you're thinking back

You might recall

Now did I act carefully, did I do right?

Or were we meant to be, all of our lives

In love and harmony, all of our lives?

So now, take my hand

Come, hold me closely

As near as you can

Believing all that we could be

And all that we have been

And all that we are

Everyday seems summertime

The river flow with wine

Ooh when you were here with me

I wish we'd stayed that way forever

Oh my hopes are as the leaves upon the water

Just sunk in the night

And though I know you couldn't care, you oughtta

Ah, the end of a life

Or maybe when you're older, and you're thinking back

Well you might recall

Now did I act carefully, did I do right?

Or were we meant to be, all of our lives

In love and harmony, all of our lives?

So now, take my hand

Come, hold me closely

As near as you can

Believing all that we could be

And all that we have been

And all that we are

Oh my hopes were as the leaves upon the water

Ah, sunk in the night

And though I know you couldn't care, you oughtta

Oh, the end of a life

And maybe when you're older, and you're thinking back

Oh, you might recall

Now did I act carefully, did I do right?

Or were we meant to be, all of our lives

In love and harmony, all of our lives?

So now, take my hand

Come, hold me closely

As near as you can

Believing all that we could be

And all that we have been

And all that we are
