The Day My Heart Floated Away
Years and tears
High and lows
Courting, smooching
Our loving grows
We meet after work
Go for drinks
Meet our friends
Our hearts in sync
Holidays we take
Our excitement grows
Parents to be
Our first one shows
Parents we are
Over the moon
Three more times
In your mother cocoon
Their now teenagers and older
Where we are the same
Two individual pictures
But not in the same frame
Our day to day ripples
Like stones thrown in a pond
Are the distant memories
When we used to respond
To look back on our yesterdays
As if it was today
For now it seems
The day my heart floated away
