Destined to be Lovers Forever

There was a time when the world was beautiful
and we were destined to be lovers forever
nothing brought us sadness
   we were devoted
like sunrise is to morning like sunset is to the night
now all I have are memories drifting through my soul

I cry for your last whispered breath
days mean nothing, tomorrows are gone
our lives vanished like a passing wind
sweeping away time...sweeping away growing old

we meet in my dreams
where we still dance and I bring you flowers
dreams come and go...pain stays...pain stays
   so I cry, needing to dream
dreams are not what I need, it's you I need
   to see, to hold, to kiss again

I fall to my knees each time I visit your grave
and cry until I can't cry anymore
   Why...were you taken?
you were the beauty, the light, the paradise
we would have filled our tomorrows with so much love
that its glow would have blinded the night

What now love, what now? My heart is yours
my soul is yours, to be shared when we meet again
so we may be lovers in the heavenly stars forever
