There was a time when
I strolled through dreary days
Across the barren life of despair
It was a moment and yet it felt like a
Lifetime
Struggling with the idea of loss
Wishing for it all to end
Where is this place?
This place they call
Happiness
Each step became a weight that held me down
It was a grasp that felt heavy with the
Pounding of my soul
Heartache a morning glare that stared
Me in the face
Beating me down at a continued pace
And then one day
On a cloudy afternoon
My eyes caught a vision
And there you stood at a distance from me
Two souls captured within a path
Along a river of dreams
You knew me as I walked by
I was struggling to know myself
And with a simple hello
How are you doing?
Nice to meet you, was all that was said
It took awhile for me to understand
And though I may not have loved you that day
Your persistence was the best quality then
And time sure has meaning now
For you and me
It was a cloudy day when we met
And today it sure rained
At times we speak and answer in unison
Almost the same as a song
Boy the sun sure shines through these clouds
And I'm so happy that I met you
That one cloudy day
