It's five O'clock in the morning first night alone's slipped away the curtains on the open window flutter as the breeze's play I stare out at the dim lit street gazing through the falling rain as I sit here thinkin why we said good-bye yesterday. Chorus: we got caught up in each other wonderin what the future holds just two lonely souls together hiding in each others hope searching for the magic feeling they call one and only love we fooled ourselves believing we knew what forever was... In two more hours I leave this room fade into the working day I'll see you around sometime but things'll never be the same Still I wish I could hold you now one more time to ease the pain cause this emptiness I must confess has filled my heart again. Chorus: we got caught up in each other wonderin what the future holds just two lonely souls together hiding in each others hope searching for that magic feeling they call one and only love we fooled ourselves believing we knew what forever was |

I loved this. It's such a forgiving set of words put together. Just a look back but not with angry words, but with an endearing thought of the other. Sometimes it doesn't always work out, but it's good to leave with a gentle thought of what used to be. Lovely, lovely outlook!!! Sending a hug. ![]() Love, Terri~ ![]() |

I liked this one... I guess the perspective must rule the thought I believe in forever...it's the indelible mark on the heart...with or without TD |

Eric, this is close to the heart for me just now. Sometimes I wonder was it the right decision. Can we go back or do we move on. Don't mind me, I'm rambling. Just know that this touched me. Dee Stand straight and tall, not the reflection as others see you, but as you truely are. Clearwater |
