Love Lost London
How did we say it all began my love
In a church with a shot and an unnecessary glove
I was the marksman who caught your eye
I was the boy where you felt your heart lie
We’d sit for hours never whispering a word
Time together went so quickly, silence unheard
We would connect for hours on end
This was a true connection, not pretend
Years on, we left Cape Town for London
Adventure and living together under one sun
Finding each other on our love journey
Navigating the waters that never seemed murky
We got married and then engaged
A different set of rules for the lovers of age
Travelled the world on our foreign invasion
Me, not making every experience an positive occasion
I let you down so many, many times
Pulled you into a world of my temper crimes
This was not the place for you
Destroyed our love uttering more than a word or two
I should have loved you more
I failed you so many times before
I exhausted all my second chances
Now rejecting my all and last advances
