Buried in my chest are memories that I hold
After all these years it still feels new and my story now unfolds...
Was it a reality or an illusion that I saw…
Or fate played its mysterious game and left a tragic flaw
It started out one summer day and sure our eyes did meet
The love story then began but it was so discreet.
The look in your eyes gave me a million reasons to believe
But blame the fate that changed our lives and called it history
The morning ride from home to work was such a lovely treat
To see you every morning…my heart skipped a beat
The love grew stronger day by day- and on the phone we talked
Hours of planning, laughing, joking till the moment I was caught
Galavanting the streets and town on the bike was so much fun
Spending time together till the night was done.
Sneaking in the living room-just to hug me tight
Till you were asked to leave for it was past mid-night
The chuckles in the room were heard as I tiptoed on my feet
The lights were quickly turned off as I slid under the sheets.
I'd dreamt of walking down the aisle holding hands forever
But fate took a different turn and hopes and dreams were shattered…
It was very hard to part- when you broke the news to me
Distance makes hearts grow fonder was hard for me to believe.
Six years passed-no ray of hope
Why did I let you go?
I'd dreamt of being the only one
For my only one you know...
But after all these years, my chest is safe
And you will be there forever
No distance or time can steal my love
As you are all I treasure.
