Four years ago I fell deeply in love with a song
Its sweet tune played for me for a bit over a year
Old fashioned and raw, but it did not quite last that long
It was a charming love song that I simply held dear

I paid no attention to its artist or title
All I knew was that the song was written just for me
It was not rusty like all those records on vinyl
This song was exciting and it was my cup of tea

My heart danced with it just as my body danced to it
Until one day it stopped playing like all other songs
It became another broken record that just quit
And I stared at my ceiling and wondered what went wrong

But the other day my old song suddenly came on
It was the first time that I had heard it in four years
I did not forget it like it was forever gone
Why, it’s just a song but to my heart it’d grown too near

Four years ago I fell deeply in love with you
And I again fell deeply in love with my song
You were but the sweet tune that was long overdue
So I stared at my ceiling and just sang along
