Sorry, Seems Eternity Ended Last Week

I was but a boy You seemed almost a toy, So young, and in love, We fit just like a glove You said, "All I can offer you, Is a love that time can not destroy" Oh boy!, Oh boy!! It filled me full of joy. Nineteen was I Sixteen you were, Living in our house, My Mom, you loved her... My father, you helped him build a stoop, These are moments, We can never recoup... But eternity was short lived, You went to work, Left me for another man, I felt like the biggest jerk No, it's not all your fault, I realize that, I did not provide something, In grief I sat, Your treacherous friend, Her eyes on me, Stirred the pot, For whatever reason, For me she was hot But I would not cross that line, Her boyfriend, Was a friend of mine Well it's all water under the bridge Over troubled waters, A song I cherish, Our eternal love, Was destined to perish.
