I've had a recent epiphany
Woke me from my immersion in pain
Forced me to take stock
After long contemplation
Of all the pain and joy alike
I've come to this conclusion
I wouldn't change a thing

If I could go back to that day
When we first met
Even knowing it would end
How could I chose to give up you
Each precious moment
Each loving hour
Each day shared by two
I couldn't change a thing

Who would I be if I had missed
Learning all of you
Seeing your face soften in love
Hearing your laughter
Feeling the courage of you
Watching you breathe
Being complete with you
Without that what would I do
I'd never change a thing

Even though we cannot sustain
Could not mend the pain
Stop the crazy world's refrain
I must move on without you
No matter what happens
No matter what comes
My love faithful remains
And I wouldn't change a thing

Yes, memories are  precious to hold on to.
This is beautiful.

Hi Pepper,
this really expresses my thoughts too.

"Even though we cannot sustain
Could not mend the pain
Stop the crazy world's refrain
I must move on without you
No matter what happens
No matter what comes
My love faithful remains
And I wouldn't change a thing"

Wonder why it is so hard to make love work?
Hugs
Sandra
