Lovers
once were here that now are past and gone. Sometimes
easy leaving, sometimes raw and wrong. All
those lows and peaks, hide and seeks, never
really leave you, they’re never really gone. But
I can still remember the looks, the smiles, the eyes, the
sweet voices and soft replies. And
the early light, when love was bright, and
we’d walk arm in arm, and hold each other tight. But
I know, we don’t live there anymore. I
know, time has closed that door. And
I feel, my life has truly changed, but
love is always love, and part of it remains. I
have got a lover now, the deepest one I’ve known, a
house beside a river, children of our own. And
though life is bliss, still I’ll reminisce, on
the life I knew before her, the early loves I’d known. Old
lovers know me well, but they don’t lead me astray, share
a smile, talk awhile, we’re rooted in today. Through
the saddest ends, time makes amends, and
sometimes we’ll stop to talk before we go our way.
