Lost Love and Eternal Love
Lost Love and Eternal Love
In the summer we'd meet and we'd sip iced tea,
and the waiter saw kisses as people passed;
as I whispered my feelings into your ear,
I was sure in my heart that our love would last.
Love can be a moment or an eternity.
Now the winter is here and your heart has closed,
all the warmth that we shared is now frigid cold;
and I wonder what changed; why I lost your love,
as I sit at our table alone and old.
Love can be a moment or an eternity.
In the fall we went for long peaceful walks,
hand in hand in lust, but still so unsure;
I wanted you to say, I love you dear,
then in time, you asked and I said, yes sir.
Love can be a moment or an eternity.
In the spring, so excited we married forever,
it was a perfect union and full of beauty;
and although God took you home one day,
our sweet love will last for all of eternity.
