Someone I Knew For a While

I flew across the sky for you The plan was just one night So how can something we know is so wrong Feel so real... and so right Everything happens for a reason But why you...I’ll never know Fate may have brought us together...but My choice was to let you go Forbidden love, forbidden sex I know we crossed a line I took the chance you gave For those eight hours...I made you mine You gave me so much to remember So how can I ever forget Forever to fate I’ll be thankful For that one precious night when we met We both know we can’t be together Too many things stand in our way But that doesn’t mean I won’t miss you And know in my heart you will stay The distance between us is easy For our secret to never unfold No one will know... for you and I Are a story that never gets told I didn’t count on these feelings I never dreamed I would fall But I would rather have had just one night Than to never have had you at all Now you’re a chapter in my book And it’s time to turn the page But this is a chapter I’ll never forget It will never grow old...or age Someday I know you’ll think of me When memories stir in your mind I know the only regrets we will have Are the “what if's" we left behind Always remember and never regret Something that once made you smile Always I’ll treasure that someone I loved That someone I knew for a while...
