Somewhere down on highway 51
Been thinkin' about you for so long
Can't seem to count the endless miles
Or the times I've missed your smile

But then you were so very young
And a young girl must move on
But there's nights that I wonder
If you remember

But I've been so far away
I really have to say
I never once forgot you
Or the memory of your face
But I've been so far away

Sometimes children make a vow
Friends forever starting now
They can't know what lies ahead
End up breaking words they've said

Our intentions were so good
Tried to work but never could
Let the children dream together
Forever
