Where In the World Has Our Passion Gone

Where in the world has our passion gone Like when I couldn't wait to see you everyday It somehow slipped off, and left us here all alone I always thought love was gonna be here to stay We're no longer holding hands, as we walk through the park Like we did when we were kids back in the day No more laying in the grass, under the stars in the dark I never thought we'd be liven life this way Where in the world has our passion gone Like when I couldn't wait to kiss your sweet lips everyday Now all that's left is this cold and lonely home And it looks like that's the way it's gonna stay We're no longer making love, until the cows come home Like we did with every chance back in the day No more "I love you" goodbyes, when we hang up the phone I can't believe life has changed for us this way I'll tell you right now, where our passion has gone It's gone like the love tune records, you used to play Only thing left is cold shoulders, that chill you to the bone All gone with the "I love yous" that you no longer say Danny Boy: 9-19-13 Another one of those songs I just had to get out. :o)

The changing of what was once young , I like this because it has such a deep meaning , I perceive this to be society as a whole ~Great write

Awww, Dan. Passion is but fleeting, my friend. The deeper the passion the sooner it burns itself out. True love, on the other hand, is enduring. Nice write, my friend. Licia :-)
