Time to Live

Let's not take much time to think it over,
You and I have so much more to give.
Let's not waste our time on getting older,
The way of love is the way that we must live.

BRIDGE :
Days fly by and the nights, never-lasting,
The time is now or it may never be.
You and I must make a bond, to stand alone,
Keep Goin on,
To live our lives and embrace our des-tin-y .

We were once to young to think about the future, 
Now time has passed; changed the way we see.
We have come to real-ize the beauty in our lives
And live our days in two-part har- mo- ny.

I never responded to your question. "We must make a pact" We must agree to give to each other the love and much more. Married couples tend to fade from one another focusing on flaws rather than strengths. " Once to young to spend it on the future". We dont look forward. Youth never peers into what the future may hold. Can't imagine how they will be at some point in time. No interest in it. When they arrive, hopefully they will realize how lucky they were to reach that age. That's it!

Ray sometimes we think we have the right person in our lives to be with in a relationship. some years goes by and we discover that our partner cheats on us.so that person ruins the relationship. A married couple should not sleep in different rooms. They should sleep in the same bed.

Hello Ray Zattla, If a couple decide to sleep in separate bedrooms there isw a problem between them. perhaps one of the partners wants to end the marriage. I think when a couple is married they should sleep in the same bed. Right we do not want loneliness we want companionship.

Darlene, All of our lives, we rush through. Raising children, working until we are, well old-er!! Then, we're alone. Never gave much thought to the future. We spent our lives not contemplating where we are now. alone, but we don't want loneliness. So, we agree to live in the harmony, that which we created over the years ignoring the mishaps that cloud relationships and cause many to sleep in separate rooms. LETS MAKE A PACT!
