Rose Egan Poet Romanticism

Because I Loved You Then

BECAUSE 
I LOVED YOU THEN

OH HOW I MISS THE MORNING HUGS, 
AND KISSES ON THE STEP
THE DAY YOU TOOK ME IN YOUR HOME, 
I STARTED OFF UPSET
AS TIME WENT ON I REALIZED, 
HOW MUCH YOU REALLY CARED
THEN YOU TOOK ME IN YOUR ARMS, 
AND HELD ME VERY NEAR
I TRUSTED YOU AND WANTED TO BE 
MORE THAN JUST A FRIEND,
SO I OPENED UP MY HEART TO YOU, 
THAT’S WHEN IT ALL BEGAN 

BECAUSE 
I LOVED YOU THEN

THE MANY NIGHTS I DROVE HOME LATE, 
THE KISS ON THE RAILROAD TRACKS
YOU BLEW MY MIND JUST IN TIME, 
OH HOW I LOVE THAT FLASHBACK
EVERY NOW AND THEN I GO BACK IN TIME 
AND STEAL MOMENTS SUCH AS THESE
YOU WON MY HEART; 
YOU WON MY SOUL AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN
IF YOU EVER WONDERED WHAT I THOUGHT 
OR WHAT MESSAGE DID YOU SEND
REST ASSURE, YOU HAD MY HEART

BECAUSE 
I LOVED YOU THEN
