Second Time Around

It seems as though we have picked up
  Where we first left off
    With all the love and feelings
      We have carried for so long,
And though the years have come and gone,
  Some things remain the same;
    Old flames have been rekindled
      And now are growing strong...

With passion reserved until now,
  Though, once, we have searched
    In other places and other faces;
      What we lost we have found
In each other; so let us celebrate
  Our lives together again,
    And let us show and tell
      Our love is better the second time around.
