Time was our hearts spoke one to one
Instead of now, its pen to paper
Time was gentler then
Like the wind blowing a cool breeze on a warm night
Easily resting it's soft whisper,
on the recipient to savor


Time was, words spoken instead of now written
Time was precious then; even the blizzard was our friend
Speaking softly to our hearts word for word,
one flake at a time
Calling yours to join mine with passion to lend


Like fine wine, aged with time,
our love like poetry flowed
Like the sun to the shine,
the melody to the music
Entwined in togetherness,
our faces all aglow


In some ways,seems like yesterday
In others,so long ago
Time was,we couldn't wait for our hearts dance
Our steps in time,
our hearts in rhyme...our oneness'poetry flowed


Yes, time was our friend then,gentler,easier,and fancy free
We danced like no one was watching
Now we watch, while no one dances
The same hearts, in a different time weep


Maybe only one heart weeps
While another stands suspended in time
One relives the passion constantly
When two equaled one, time was our friend,
Time was, When one called you "Sunshine"
Instead now, the sun refuses to shine


Time Was,
When your dreams, and future plans, was exactly, the same as mine
time was then, time was our friend
instead now, second after second, we run,
straight out of time
