It's Been A While

Partial lyrics from the song stuck in my head. An oldie but, oh so good.

A little light looks through her bedroom window.
She dances and I dream, she's not so far as she seems
Of brighter meadows, melting sunsets,
Her hair blowing in the breeze.
And she can't see me watching.
I'm thinking love, love, love, love.

It's bittersweet, more sweet than bitter, bitter than sweet.
It's a bittersweet surrender.
It's bittersweet, more sweet than bitter, bitter than sweet.
It's a bittersweet surrender.

I said, I'm older now. I work in a city. We live together.
But it's different than my dream
Morning light fills the room. I rise
She pretends she's sleeping.
Are we everything we wanted?

It's bittersweet, more sweet than bitter, bitter than sweet.
It's a bittersweet surrender.
It's bittersweet, more sweet than bitter, bitter than sweet.
It's a bittersweet surrender.
