I am to tell you we can never meet again Simple really, isn't it, a word or two and then A lifetime of not knowing where or how or why or when You think of me or speak of or wonder what befell The someone you once loved so long ago so well
Never what I'll feel as living shuffles by don't have to ask me and I need not reply Every moment of my life from now until I die I will think or of you and fail to understand How a perfect love can be confounded out of hand
Is it written in the stars Are we paying some crime Is that all that we are good for Just a stretch of mortal
Is this God's experiment In which we have no say which we're given paradise But only for a day
Nothing can be altered, there is nothing to decide No escape, no change of heart, no anyplace to You are all I'll ever want, but this I am denied Sometimes my darkest thoughts, I wish I'd never learned What it is to be in love and have that love returned
