Sweet Love of Mine

Her smile was like the sunshine
 Warming this heart of mine
 Her eyes still have me mesmerized 
 Her favorite  song  I idolized
And when the memories fall like rain
 My guitar thunders a sad refrain
 My heart felt safe within her space
 Now it feels so out of place...
 She used to be a sweet love of mine
 For her my heart will always pine
                     ----
