Let me go back to
The days I once knew
When the weight of my worries
Was how to court you,
And the seconds like snowflakes
Just melted away
And the hours like starlight
Turned night into day.
Let me remember
The things I dreamed of
When I spent the nights seeking
The words for my love,
And the rhythm like raindrops
Fell swift on the page
And the verses like moonlight
Lit up a new age.
Let me recall now
How true love felt then
When the first of my feelings
Escaped through my pen,
And though slow years like snowflakes
Have melted away
Our deep love like twilight
Still touches each day.
