We Were Once Young

Our bones were once strong, Our blow was once a punch, Our teeth's were once healthy to munch, Our skin didn't wrinkle in a twinkle We didn't become old, we grew old. We were once young, We were once "The beautiful and the handsome" But for this century I don't know what love has become. You'll give your all and get nothing in return. I met your father back in 1960 during the month of November, That moment is one to forever remember He was charming, wearing a smile with his cowboy's hat. That time he couldn't afford a bike But then 'True Love' was worth more than fancy cars. He steps closer and said; You're the most beautiful woman I've ever seen, Those words took my heart to places its never been. We were once young, Truth be told, true love never get old.
