lyrics

Career Track
© Jeff Patch 1983

Sea-blue eyes
Light brown hair
I always thought you would be there

A carefree time
And I knew you loved me then
Something special felt inside

Chorus:
And I know I love you
And I miss you all the time
And I know I need you
I thought you'd be there for all time

Dune buggy drives
Surprises in my lunch each day
I see the sparkle in your eyes

Antique chairs
Flowers on the table
Did someone wait for me each night?

Long distance calls
Something tried and failed
An empty bed and thin veiled lies

Career track
Was it worth it then?
What if we hadn't moved apart?

Repeat Chorus
