Tales of a Love That Was

When shall I ever be well? Like yesterday again? Today which is so gross? Or tomorrow which brings remorse? I remember how time whiled And the wind blew lyrically with your sighs And the tune of how your voice rise Oh! I forgot all otherwise Out here in the dew Out here with a brew In the room Under the moon All I feel is you Nothing more, but you I remember all of you And forgot all of others Because you are more and they are few Love, isn't it? Yes! Love it is called That single comprehensive word Heavier than the whole world What do I feel? How do I know Like a touch of snow Like the rainbow bestowed We have walked the streets And held hands all over We have sat side by side And discussed all the earth hath Good bye! To you, to us I just want to say goodbye To everything we have been I still can't forget all I've seen Heard, said and done But goodbye to our love that was I still loved you like yesterday And surely tomorrow I will again But goodbye to our days Goodbye to our era An era that's been I watch in silence Very helpless As time while away with suspense And the clock ticked off in pretence O! How can I say How much I wish our era will stay That beautiful alluring face Which makes the whole world at you gaze And that fascinating smile Enchanting my heart to run thousand miles And the deep black eyes Fashioned with a tinsel scarf Unforgettable is that skin of yours, with its incomparable tan Which could enchant any man Today, here again, I point out my arm But there is none to clasp my palm An emptiness dominated my heart on your departure Even though the wind, the moon, the sun, and the leaves do assure That over there, out on a beach, like I do all nights through, you are watching my face on stars And trying to heal from my heart all the scars Don't long, don't pine, for what is forever yours (me) Because someday, I will come, and become again a part of your world Then forever, pray, that I be your reward And for eternity you will own my love
