This Is That New Song Lyrics

And if I knew the answers
I would tell you now
Just what would be the chances
That I could show you how
If I knew where all the tears were coming from
Add up all the years that you've been gone
This is that new song
I told you about twenty years ago

Do you know what true romance is
And could you show me now
Just what would be the chances
That I could tell you how
If I new where all the tears were flowing to
I'd guide them to a river
Where I'd swim with you down stream
This is that old dream
I told you about twenty years ago

And could you hold me now

Not one person has commented on one of the greatest songs?? Now, that's not right...

This song is so heartfelt with just the lyrics, but when you add those string parts it just adds another degree of....beauty. One of his best.

I agree. This is a awesome song and still barely any comments? Beautiful song.

this song reminds me of how I saw things right after my best friend's father died right before her 18th birthday...just the idea of the beauty and the guidence that he won't share with her in the future...makes me want to cry.

I love this song. It's got to be one of my favourites by Damon.

It's a happy and sad song for me all at the same time.

I think it's the reunion of two old lovers, or two childhood friends that had drifted apart.
