Love Was

( LOVE WAS ) I remember when I met you the smile on your face, Seems like a million years ago - a different time and place I remember when I kissed you the warmth inside my heart, I thought it'd last a lifetime I swore we'd never part I thought about the future I started making plans, Forever you'd be my woman forever I'd be your man We went together places so that everyone could see, The women that I want to share the rest of my life with me I told you that I loved you I told you that I cared, I told you if you were falling just look back and I'd be there I know I didn't have all the answers sometimes I only guessed, But, through it all I have to say "I always tried my best" I wasn't always perfect I wasn't always right, I know sometimes I wasn't even worthy in your sight I know I took for granted the love you had to share, All I ever wanted was for you to know I cared Our lives have changed directions as sometimes lovers do, Often time and change and pave a path that's new Sometimes I often wondered just what lies ahead, Sometimes I'd like to turn back time and take back what I said We've both gone different places we've both gone different ways, I know sometimes I let you down when trouble came our way I know sometimes I did things you didn't comprehend, But, through the years and all the tears our memories will never end..
