Too Much Love All Around Gone Too Fast

Too much love all around gone too fast
as the clocks tick tock with the setting of the sun
and rising of the silver moon;
the flip of an hourglass
as she left out my front door,
not even thinking about using the back;
she left me for I "loved her too much,"

Yes, Too much love all around,
gone too fast,
as another setting of the sun
and rising of the silver moon,
as the flip of an hourglass
as she showed her back to me for one last time,
too much love all around,
gone too fast.
