Love - Shouldn'T Have Won

I before a month, I knew that laugh it was musical, promising so much in caring, learning we don't know enough about JESUS and his plans and such II then we prayed mornings at the Home that mix of elder care and young tenants rules said we could not fraternize, come visiting at odd hours: i left because of rents III The rising cost of housing, albeit It was a Senior Center, non-profit It was perfect for sharing Jesus, and repeat I was gone a few weeks and she located me IV That reunion made everything clear I needed her near, or at least a Dear Our ages poles apart, she had no fear Of gossip, a gold-digger and The Senior V The days when you were gone (life calls) Those days were a haze; I looked at the clock Too often, at my Bible a little, friends were false You came: the universe righted itself. Lover in shock
