Yesterday I knew you, you seemed so close to me
Closer than a brother, such a comfort you could be
Guiding me so closely, I felt your leading hand
Walking in your footsteps, through uncharted lands
Then a fork in the road
I took my eyes off you
Losing sight of where you lead me
I forgot the thing I knew
When did I stop falling, when did I stop calling, when did I stop falling
In love with you
Yesterday I saw you, so beautiful and fair
Anointing you gently, with my tears and hair
Sitting at your feet, was all I could do
Nothing else mattered, you were all that was true
Then I set my eyes on Egypt
While you turned the other way
So much I just can’t tell you
But you know the price I pay
When did I stop falling, when did I stop calling, when did I stop falling
In love with you
Yesterday’s a memory, a distant road ago
While I seek for newer answers one thing I just can’t let go
Someone said it simply, though I’m not sure just who
If It’s new it isn’t true, If it’s true it isn’t new
When did I stop falling, when did I stop calling, when did I stop falling
In love with you
~ J. W. McKay – 1999
