That Ship Has Sailed

That ship has sailed

I'm not on it

Our glorious romance

Now a sad sonnet

Our ship has sailed

We are not in it

 

We tried, but I won't say we failed

Forever I know I will regale

Myself with the thoughts of time so well-spent

Lost in each other wherever we went

 

The wind in the willows whispers your name

Whenever I walk down Memory Lane

I see our reflection in the lovers who hold

Their hands tight together

It's soul to soul

 

That was us, what we used to be

But our ship has sailed to its destiny

The sea of romance, the ocean of sighs

It was good while it lasted

We both realize
