Always and Forever

I wonder if the day will dawn That I will wake to find My life is not revolving round The world I left behind The days turned into months And now the months have grown to years But still the thought of you Can turn my laughter into tears We’d found a love so special But we lost it all somehow The chance we had was gone And all our dreams are over now So how do I survive each day How do I go on When everything I ever had And ever loved is gone Although you’re now with someone else With whom your share your life She’ll never wear your ring For I will always be your wife She may spend her nights with you And wake with you each day She may have tomorrow But I had yesterday Yesterdays so filled with all The memories of our youth The joy, the pain, the tears, the fears The laughter, lies and truth Memories of our songs and places Things we did together Memories of a love so young We knew would last forever Memories of the boy I met The teenage Romeo But who you are today Is all the you she’ll ever know Sometimes in my darkest thoughts I wish I’d never learned What it’s like to find real love And have that love returned It’s made it so much harder To be with somebody new For no one else can have That part of me I gave to you You’re still my world, my heart, my soul You’re still what life’s about The one I'm living for The one I have to live without I know I can’t hold onto you But still I can’t let go Because with you I found The greatest love I’ll ever know...
