It was not so long ago
You found yourself somebody new
I said I love you then I let go
Guess my heart not only broke, it flew
Had my share of sorrow and pain
And shed lots of precious tears
Hoping somehow I could regain
Pick up the pieces, defy the years
Cross the miles that lie ahead
I tried to forget, I really did
But come the end of the thread
You’re still the one I ever need
I let me drift away with thoughts
I’ll catch my breath rest assured
Your pretty face, your words and moves
Oh dear, what else does this prove?
Five years, my love, it has been
Sad lullabies guide me to my sleep
As if I’ll spend my life in a dream
Until the day you’ll be mine to keep.
