It's been a long, long time, but in your eyes I can see it fade
Like mist on the mirror, that I taped with photographs

You & I making faces, I'd write your name in steam
I remember, blue towels and tiles
The yellow toothbrush was mine …

Peppermint kisses everyone
When I say cheese, now there'll be fun!
Peppermint kisses everyone
I brushed my teeth now where's the fun …

It's been a long long time, but in my eyes you will see
They took away from me, what I had promised would be yours
(promised would be yours), oh yes, I'm happy now
That I've agreed, choice had to be narrower
That you'll remember, brooding quiet and tears
As the silence hissed in my ears, and I could not explain
