It Would Be You We can’t relive the yesteryears Still painted in our memory No matter depth of swelling tears We can’t relive the yesteryears And love is what in truth appears Though love lives for eternity We can’t relive the yesteryears Still painted in our memory What greater peace to ease the soul Than knowing love and loving well If only pleasure is the goal What greater peace to ease the soul No other joy do we extol More than sweet tears of love that swell What greater peace to ease the soul Than knowing love and loving well If I could have one prayer bestowed It would be love, it would be you I’d pay for any dept I owe If I could have one prayer bestowed From painted memories long ago In canvas tones of love I knew If I could have one prayer bestowed It would be love, It would be you Elizabeth Santos 8/13/03 |
