There was a time I used to pray
that I always kept my faith in love,
You then came that summer day
as one gift from the man above.
Yes, our hearts were afraid to love,
but we put all cards on the table.
Not knowing it wouldn't be enough
that reality would turn unstable.
Like that old song we used to sing,
while holding hands on Friday night.
It's lyrics talked of our love's spring,
a love trapped short in borrowed time.
It'll take more time to believe it.
Hardly any left for some grieving.
But, Love can be found after it's tossed!
Joy can come back after it's gone!
Only one thing's left for true healing
and that is found while forgiving.
Because after all is said and done,
our paths still connect forevermore.
that I always kept my faith in love,
You then came that summer day
as one gift from the man above.
Yes, our hearts were afraid to love,
but we put all cards on the table.
Not knowing it wouldn't be enough
that reality would turn unstable.
Like that old song we used to sing,
while holding hands on Friday night.
It's lyrics talked of our love's spring,
a love trapped short in borrowed time.
It'll take more time to believe it.
Hardly any left for some grieving.
But, Love can be found after it's tossed!
Joy can come back after it's gone!
Only one thing's left for true healing
and that is found while forgiving.
Because after all is said and done,
our paths still connect forevermore.
“hello was the seed that made our love grow, and if this we ever doubt, let's take faith and push it out” Never thought I would go through this, having lost the person I loved the most has been the ultimate failure of my life. Yet I must understand that there's circumstances that we cannot control and people sometimes make desicions that affect us. The important thing is finding ourselves in the process and realize that we still have a future that is as bright as we let it be.
