The Tides of July

 Late July, the clouds billow waiting the afternoon rain
 This summer although just is not the same
 The seasons of my life have in a moment been changed
 I see you clearly in the reflections of the past
 I'm afraid now hoping the reflection will last
 The tides of July have changed my life
 "I must carry on" you explained to me
 "One foot in front of the other, just breathe"
 These words in my heart, I'll shall keep
 A flame illuminates the dark, it is you that brightens my soul
 A flame that will burn into my days' of old
 You graced me with love I cannot explain
 All the days' of my life your love shall remain
 Can I handle the seasons of my life, I will try
 Every beat of my heart is for you, I now know why
 Our hearts are entwined, for there never is a goodbye...
