The Love We Share

The love we share There was a time... I was young and trouble free Money poured like rain... washed all over me Those were the days... for doing all I could do Those were the days... the days when I met you We had a life with time to spare All we had...was the love we share There was a time... I thought I was invincible Work was all that mattered I was nearly invisible Those were the dark days... when we would drift apart Those were the dark days... when we would mend our broken hearts No one likes to play the fool, Sometimes destiny is cruel! It's great to see you smile... even if, just to hide the pain It's been quite a while... and no one is to blame These are the best days... for learning how to live These are the best days... to begin to forgive What are troubled times, good for? We learn to love a little more! How was I to know... that life comes to an end? Now that everything is gone... you are my only friend These are the best days... to breathe all I can breathe These are the best days... to confirm what I believe When time's up, there's no time to spare! All that's left is the love we share! Seems to me, seasons change... and not always for the best When winter finally comes... maybe now's a good time to rest These are the best days... for keeping bodies warm These are the best days... like the calm before the storm When times up there's no time to spare, all that's left is the love we share When times up there's no time to spare, all that's left is the love we share repeat and fade to zero John Derek Hamilton September 10,2018
