A Flame Once Burned
There’s just one heart where there once was two
It’s a story of love we write on a shore
A promise of love we softly whisper
I hear you breathing softly by my side
The way I feel and what you mean to me
You are my lover, my friend.
And when I stand beside you
I can feel the pride of my heart
And its you that I’m going to stay
And now you say you want to leave
I can’t believe what I have just heard
You walk by and I fall to pieces
The clouds are all disappeared
My heart now cries a river of tears
Goodbye for the love once we shared
We leave a flame once burned.
Bitter sweet memories we left behind.
