Once you were truly my lover
and I loved you as never before
you were the beauty my heart had dreamed of
life could not offer more.
When you smiled I smiled inside of me
so grateful that you were just mine
when you kissed me I was in heaven
making love was always divine.
But we drifted apart and our lives changed
tragedies and triumphs moved through
the more that we aged the more we saw change
so much in our lives was brand new.
Now old and reminiscent with memories
I remember your touch oh so well…
and sometimes I dream of what could have been
… but a gentleman would never tell.
