In waves of people you can lose your feet
   You've got to stay hard to the ground
   It gets so easy now to lose your way
   When you're ever outward bound
   A church-bell ringing in the fading light
   Stops you dead like a cold steel wall
   The ghost of yester-year is touching you
   And as sure as God you'll fall
  
   And I see you and I see me
   I see it all like it used to be
  
   And all the reasons why you should started out
   Hit you hard with every bell
   The choir practice in the empty hall
   Is a sound you know so well
   Like something lost inside your overcoat
   You find much later, by mistake
   You lost it all a thousand years ago
   And you pray it's not too late
  
   And I see you and I see me
   I see it all like it used to be
   I'm going to write it in a diary
   Now I remember everything
   Yes I remember how it used to be
   With every note that choir-boy sings
  
   And I see you and I see me
   I see it all like it used to be
