A Shadow of a Memory
You are the shadow of a dream I lost
So long ago,
You are the memory of someone dear
I used to know.
A man who possessed such wit and charm,
And in an instant they were both gone.
I often wondered what life would be,
If you had stayed here with me.
Would it be so wrong for that moment in
Tine,
Would it be wrong to deny that tender
Moment with your hand In mine?
But alas that choice can never be
You’re simply a shadow in my
Memory
And so I patiently wait for the day
When we will be together again
Together and not in a memory
Together we will walk for eternity
