I thought that love had come to stay
One knows true love won’t run away
For you and I were born to be
Two partners through eternity.
I’d always dreamt that this was so
No matter what or where we’d go
Though sometimes I did have a doubt
If this is what all love’s about ?
I tried so hard to stay the course
I didn’t care who was the boss
Since you and I had one intent
That for each other we were meant.
Somehow, somewhere it went astray
While all our hopes did melt away
So much for dreams and plans well made
Like future joys that got mislaid.
I often wondered what went wrong
Was I too weak, were you not strong
After the bliss of that first kiss
Why does love fade to hit or miss ?
