Yesterdays Joy

Yesterday’s joy
How I wish I could stop the clock
And reverse every second to the time we first met
I can repeat the second line until time stand still
I swear sporadic will be harder if it means I must lose your site  

Yesterday’s joy was hard to believe
I felt my heart expanding to lock in your tenderness
Our bond grew instantly and then I knew
Love, your lips taste much better than honey

I’m not sure what to call you!
Because honey is bitter than your sweetness
I have never journeyed beyond the clouds
But yesterday I was haven

You’ve touched deserted parts of my body
Like a piano played by the best pianist
You made me sing better than Pavarotti
Yesterday’s joy was incredible

Why did have to come in my sleep
So much joy we had last night
Now I’m only left with yesterday’s joy in my mind
O! I wish you were real!
