Love Across Time

"I get this feeling I may know you",
from another time and place.
It's as though I know your inner soul,
although I can't recall your face.

Your every move is so familiar.
Your scent invokes sweet memories.
"Come and let me look into your eyes",
my heart pleads out insistently.

"This bed of roses that I lay on",
I want to share once more with you.
The fates have brought us here once more,
across time we are renewed.

The moment that you spoke my name,
I felt a door open up inside.
"I've got two arms that long to hold you".
Love has always been our guide.
