Yesterday's Love
We were only two young lovers
crossing the threshold of desire
Impatient, passionate heated
our souls burned with a youthful fire
Sure of our immortality
we shook our fists against the world
Standing together for courage
with our banners proudly unfurled
So many years have slid behind
since we first heard those battle cries
Now our mortality mocks us
shadows of crosses dull our eyes
Since that very first touch bound us
your love has consumed me always
Today our hearts still beat as one
like it was only yesterday
