I Still Love You

It feels like yesterday, 
You were by my side.
I feel the warmth of you body, 
In your arms I could hide. 

Safe from the world, 
Free from the pain. 
Of what the world offers, 
I was so naive.

Time dragged out, 
As it does when your young. 
You take everything for granted, 
For life's just begun. 

For if I knew now, 
What I didn't then. 
I'd never let you go,
So our time would never end.

Now it's to late, 
25 years have gone by.
I'll love you for ever,
Your eldest boy.
