You'll Forever Stay
In the silence of a summer night,
I look up at the moon and embrace its warm and soothing light.
A light and warmth that fills every emotion that touches my soul,
And soars it to a memory of a time so long ago.
A time unlike where I am today,
A time I longed to be in but it’s here I must stay.
Leaving me with only memories of a life and a love I left behind,
Memories of a man I promised to be with until the end of our time.
As I sit down and shake my head and think how foolish it was of me,
This is just a memory and a memory is what it only be.
A dream of a young girl and her handsome young man
So in love were they as they walked in the moonlight hand and hand.
Oh there are times like this one those memories come back to me,
Back to a time a place and memories that are a comfort to me.
And as I wonder where you are today on this special day
Always remember there is a special place in my heart where you abide
And it’s there forever you will stay.
