Old Lace (To John)

Lyrics

Daybreak touches my face gently like the feel of old lace The sun kisses me just like you and reminds me of the things that you do Loved one, filled in your eyes tells me that you tell me no lies And when you say that you care, I no longer need to ask why or where Can't you see we're living in a dream High above the clouds so very high it would seem And since into this life we're born with no right to choose Like old lace there comes a time when it's no longer used I wonder now how long our together can last Think about the future and now not seasons passed And don't you know, that when you've gone and silenced our cry It's gonna be hard, but we simply have to say goodbye Daybreak touches my face gently like the feel of old lace The sun kisses me just like you and reminds me of the things that you do But now you see we're living in a dream High above the clouds so very high it would seem And since into this life we're born with no right to choose Like old lace there comes a time when it's no longer used Like old lace there comes a time when its value we lose
