My sweet Sherrie
What have you done to me
We met what seems a lifetime ago

You sauntered right in to where only emptiness had blossomed
We conversed in easy tones while not really saying much
Never in my life had I fell in love so quick and so much

Oh my sweet Sherrie
The goddess from the barren prairie
When you walked in I lost my mind

What you did to me, my sweet Sherrie
With my mind you were quite contrary
When you touched my hand the world went away

I wish now I had went away
But together we stayed
What a week we had

But now the memories just make me sad
For I have learned that it turned bad
For now I know that in this world

We shall not touch again until the next world
Two years ago, you went away to another world
Leaving me here alone to face my private hell

My sweet Sherrie, You were my southern bell
Since I know that you didn’t tell
How was I to know what had happened to you

You held your silence and off you flew
To a place where you will never be blue
One day soon I shall join you up past the stars

I know now why every time it rained
The scent of you would drive me insane
For it was my sweet Sherrie’s tears that were falling

In the wind I can hear you gently calling
Catch me once more darling for I am falling
Just like you did when you were mine

Back then our world was fine
But since then I have walked the line
Cause no one could compare
To my sweet little Sherrie

Perhaps you did meet a lifetime ago. grin...several times. A sad, but sweet read.
Thank you.
