If only we had met yesterday
When love was new to both of us and
Untarnished,
Where dreams fashioned by hope and laughter
Were made without question and rose colored
Glasses were not a joke!
If only we had met yesterday
When in our youth, 'Promises were made to be
Broken' was not the rule and the ache in our hearts
Was made by cupid's arrow answering a call to love.
Yesterday, it was so simple to pull the petals
From a daisy and 'He loves me' and he loves me
Was always the last petal to be pulled.
Today, the daisy's won't tell.
Today, you belong to another!
Where were you yesterday, when I needed you?
