Still

Still as the evening approached I can feel you here, After all these years the memory of your voice I still hear. There was a time you were more than just a memory, But also that was a long time ago and I was only sixteen. As I close my eyes I feel your hand reach out to me, With a gentle caress you reached over and touched my cheek slowly. As your lips brushed across mine At that moment everything came to a stop even time. Yet like I said that was a long time ago , When I foolishly let you go. And as your memory haunts the shadows of my mind, I know one day there will be for us another place another time. We’ll meet again and I’ll place your hand in mine. You'll say those words I longed to hear yet you never could say But this time you’re back here with me and forever more will stay.
