Rodney Crowell - After All This Time LYRICS

There were trains

And we out-run 'em

There were songs

And we out-sung 'em

There were brighter days never ending

There was time

And we were burnin'

There were rhymes

And we were learnin'

There was all the love two hearts could hold



And after all this time

You're always on my mind

Hey I could never let it end

'Cause my heart takes so long to mend

The dream that keeps your hopes alive

The lonely nights you hold inside

And after all this time

You're always on my mind

I still want you



There was rain

That we outlasted

There was pain

But we got past it

There were last goodbyes still left unspoken

There were ways I should have thrilled you

There were days I could have killed you

You're the only love my life has known



And after all this time

You're always on my mind

Hey I could never let you go

A broken heart that heals so slow

Could never beat for someone new

While you're alive and I am too

And after all this time

You're always on my mind

I still miss you



And I could never let it in

'Cause my heart takes so long to mend

The dream that keeps your hopes alive

The lonely nights you hold inside

And after all this time

You're always on my mind

I still want you

Hey after all this time

You're always on my mind

I still love you
