Premier Amour

Occasionally I’ll see you

Within the lyrics of a song

On the face of a young woman

In the depths of a dream

 

And the sting never fades

 

But I seek not your pity

Or even a word

For you I know it was worse

Than I’ll ever know

 

So much has changed

Since our hearts were entwined

We’ve grown to be adults

Made commitments that bind

 

You knew then what we had

Was rare indeed

A love to last our lives

… Had I only took heed
