George

I went to see you on that day
You were late and I was there
I fell in love right there and then
Just the colour of your hair

You'd just had dinner when I came
Spaghetti bolognese
It was your favourite I was told
We had it many days

We walked through woods the two of us
We ran along the beach
We learnt each from each other 
You were very quick to teach

We stayed together you and I 
We thought it would not end
Until I heard them say one day
Now death would be your friend

I cried and cried and cried and cried
But did not let you see
That after you there'd be no more
You were the only one for me.
