My Way Back Home
Where has the time gone,
That we shared so long ago?
When we walked side by side,
Down the lovely leafy road.
Those were the good old days,
In that Autumn breeze.
Planning what we’d become,
Beneath the maple trees.
Man, the seasons change,
And so do people’s hearts.
I remember that awful day,
When loneliness embarked.
Since then, I’ve stopped counting,
But my heart knows the exact days.
As it grieves of distant joy,
That will never come its’ way.
Do you ever stop and wonder,
Where our lives could be?
As you live in happiness,
I’m stuck in memories.
You were the abode of my life,
That my heart has ever known.
Since that day you evicted me,
I’ve been looking for my way back home.
