Fifth Avenue Memory

He was the man from a dream I once knew

Golden heart, eyes that saw me through

But I was just a girl, too wild, too free

Didn’t know love was standing in front of me

And time moved on, like it always does

But I kept dancing with the ghost of us

Every time I close my eyes, we’re back on Fifth Avenue

Spinning under city lights, you holding onto me

I’ve loved you in silence for twenty years straight

And no man I’ve met could ever take your place

You’re the one I let go, but you never left me

You’re still the dream I dance with on Fifth Avenue

I wore my youth like a shield from the truth

Didn’t know what I had ‘til I lost you

They came and went, but none could stay

‘Cause your shadow chased them all away

And though the world’s grown colder now

I still remember the warmth somehow

Every time I close my eyes, we’re back on Fifth Avenue

Laughing like the world was ours, no shoes on our feet

I’ve loved you in silence for twenty years straight

And no touch since then has ever felt that safe

You’re the one I let go, but you never left me

You’re still the dream I dance with on Fifth Avenue

If I could rewind, I’d run back in time

Hold you close and call you mine

But now you live in melodies

Of the girl I used to be

Every time I close my eyes, we’re back on Fifth Avenue

Frozen in a perfect night only I still see

I’ve loved you in silence for twenty years straight

And no man since you could ever change that fate

You’re the one I let go, but you never left me

You’re still the dream I dance with on Fifth Avenue

You’re still the dream I dance with…

On Fifth Avenue
