John Denver - "Seasons Of The Heart"


Of course we have our differences, 

you shouldn't be surprised.

It's as natural as changes 

in the seasons and the skies.

Sometimes we grow together, 

sometimes we drift apart,

a wiser man than I might know 

the seasons of the heart.


And I'm walking here beside you

in the early evening chill.

a thing we've always loved to do,

I know we always will.

We have so much in common,

so many things we share,

that I can't believe my heart

when it implies that you're not there.


Love is why I came here in the first place,

love is now the reason I must go.

Love is all I ever hoped to find here,

love is still the only dream I know.


So I don't know how to tell you,

it's difficult to say.

I never in my wildest dreams

imagined it this way.

But sometimes I just don't know you,

there's a stranger in our home.

When I'm lying right beside you

is when I'm most alone.


And I think my heart is broken,

there's an emptiness inside.

So many things I've longed for

have so often been denied.

Still I wouldn't try to change you,

there's no one that's to blame.

It's just some things that mean so much

and we just don't feel the same.


Love is why I came here in the first place,

love is now the reason I must go.

Love is all I ever hoped to find here,

love is still the only dream I know.

True love is still the only dream I know.
