Splendor
In the dawn of our life when splendor began
And our fears were not yet known;
We walked with a love that came from within
In a wonderful world of our own.
Then came a time when love became fickle
Shame grew with a strength we never knew;
And the love we cherished began to fade away
Grief and sorrow began to hold true.
The love we had became harder to hold
What little could be found from the start;
If we could go back to when splendor began
To keep the love glow we had in the heart.
