"After All This Time" lyrics

Found yourself, far from high
They said you're not the same, as days gone by
The talk of the town, it was getting you down
Singing like a free, free bird
Wanted to fly somewhere, wings don't work
But I was around to pick you back up off the ground

And after all this time
I'd do it all for you once again
It's always you and I
And that's the way it's gotta be
And that's the way it's gotta be

Found yourself, not quite young
You recognise this place, but grass has grown
There's ghosts in the town, it was getting you down
Trace the steps to my door, just like the mountains stand
I'm so sure that I'll be around
You don't have to say anything now

And after all this time
I'd do it all for you once again
It's always you and I
And that's the way it's gotta be
And that's the way it's gotta be

I said "Oh, forget the way it's been"
I said "Oh, I know what to believe and I believe it"

And after all this time
I'd do it all for you once again
It's always you and I
And that's the way it's gotta be
And that's the way it's gotta be
And after all this time
I'd do it all for you once again
It's always you and I
And that's the way it's gotta be
And that's the way it's gotta be
