My Only Valentine
Yvonne was my first love, she was only twenty When the Angels came down and took her from me Time is a great healer I would hear people say But my sadness and pain has never gone away. I'm eighty years old now and I've lived my life And pray that someday I again see my wife It's always more painful on Valentine's Day My only wish now is to quietly fade away. She was sixteen and a cheerleader for our team "Hi" she said smiling it was the start of our dream Just good friends at first and then we fell in love Cupid's arrow hadn't missed us from way up above. We'd go down to the beach and lie on the sand And just two years later I asked for her hand "My soul mate, best friend and love of my life I would be so honoured if you'd be my wife". "Of course John " she said and gave me a big smile That I'd again love to see; it's been too long a while We would always see each other every single day And I would not have had it any other way. We left school, started work and saved all our money Friends said " you're too young and what is your hurry" Yvonne was nineteen as she walked down the aisle. Then there she was beside me and gave me a smile. We bought our first house right down by the sea And her big dream was one day to have a family A year later I came home from working one night An ambulance was outside with a blue flashing light. Her parents were there; and her three sisters too They said "she'd called them and tried to call you She had complained of pains at the back of her head We went round to the house and found her lying dead". Their tears were now flowing but I just had to see I could not believe what they had just told me She had tried to call me but I was working outside I knelt down beside her; held her hand and just cried. They placed her on a stretcher and then took her away Yvonne's parents insisted at their house I should stay And for days I'd just sit there staring into space I would have given just anything to take her place. Her funeral day came; friends and family were there All through the service I cried, I just did not care The flowers on her white coffin were beautiful to see And that has always stayed with me in my memory I moved out of our house that we used to share The memories were too painful, I couldn't stay there I'd go down to the beach and walk along the sand And think back to the day when I asked for her hand. On our first Valentines Day sixty three years ago I realised then that I loved her and told her so She gave me that big smile, followed by a kiss My beautiful angel Yvonne I surely do miss.
