Looking across the ocean
Or into the past
She's got that look in her eyes
It happened so fast

She doesn't want to leave
Or lose their love
Ohh, but in her heart
There's someone she dreams of

She thinks of him
A hundred times a day
Always thinking of something
She needs to say

Then she's lost in memories
That faraway look in her eyes
Sometimes she smiles,
But oh.. sometimes she cries

She can hear his laughter
She can see his smile
Oh, to hold him again
If only for a while

She knows they need her
They're here in her heart
But sometimes her dreams
Seem to tear her apart

She picks up the pieces
And all is not lost
She keeps her life together
But not without cost

She wonders if he thinks of her
That faraway look in her eyes
Sometimes she smiles,
But oh.. sometimes she cries
