Several years must have passed me by
Since the last time that I met her
Believe me when I say, the more I try
The harder it gets to forget her
She was wearing red and I was dressed in joy
Never got so excited ere, like a little boy
…
The day was splendid
Not a single cloud in the sky
I can’t remember a more sunny day
In the middle of July
There was hope in the air and the birds were singing true
Maybe later sparks would fly and bells would ring too
…
I was listening as she spoke
About life, love, rabbits and cages
It’s amazing how she had so much to talk about
It’s like we hadn’t met for ages
Destiny had brought us here after all these years
And now she must lead the way, away from all our fears
…
In the middle of it all
The old wounds were opened again
I looked skyward and prayed
And asked Him to throw down some rain
Put on your best dress and pour like you’ve never poured before
Just set the scene for me alright, there’s nothing I want more
…
There was so much happening around us
But all I noticed was her pleasant smile
Nothing seemed to matter anymore
Time, it seemed, had stopped awhile
There was no one between us except confusion and doubt
My heart was writing sonnets but no words ever came out
…
What was i to do?
Was it the right time to profess?
The emotions of past swerved inside
And left me stranded, I must confess
The end was near. There wasn’t much to analyse
Destiny and rain had betrayed me. It didn’t take long to realize
The castles had been blown away
Like tiny grains of sand
…
Maybe it was never meant to be
The time had come for us to part
My faith in God was shaken
For leaving me with an empty heart
Nature can be cruel, I cursed the mocking sky
Not a souvenir to take home as I watched the moment die
We didn’t even kiss goodbye
We just waved our hands
