Ron Sexsmith - Reacquainted lyrics

Reacquainted with the sun above And songs of love that we used to sing Takes the past out of the years, and sets them here All these handmade, heartfelt souvenirs Reacquainted with my homeward dove At this moment of my wandering It puts the joy back in the tears, as they reappear All these handmade, heartfelt souvenirs And why has it been so long a time Since we were one? And why have these strings laid so long inside When there were songs to be sung? Reacquainted with the sun above And songs of love that we used to sing
