The Love I Lost

The love I lost
And could not find
I was forced to put him
Out of my mind.

To continue loving him
I could not do
Had to find another
Who would love me true.

The love I lost
But loved oh, so much
Turned me down
And wished for luck.

He passed up
A number one girl
To travel happily
Around the world.

The love I lost
And wished to find
Stayed forever
On my mind.

Bringing back memories
Of the past
And remembering how long
Our love did last.

The love I lost
And finally found
Back to me
He was bound.

Now our love
Has come anew
And we will forever
Keep it true.
