AL DE LA MY LOVE
You and I had everything calculated and planned
We were just following fate and its every command
Two souls were going to find forever in an unexpected land
And neither of us would dare to defy destiny’s demand
We were supposed to last a lifetime together no matter what
That was a man and his lady’s predetermined plot
No one could rattle our teacups or shake up the place
Not as long as two lovers had the other’s embrace
I recall adding and subtracting and then reaching a perfect sum
We were sitting on a settee having biscuits and sharing one glass of rum
We shared everything including time, smiles and each other’s past
But simply because a person says “forever” doesn’t mean it will last
Because you hit a rocky road or a curve at too great a speed
At destiny’s demand I didn’t believe death could be so easily decreed
We were acting in haste while all the time we thought, devised and planned and sadly together
we would never find that forever’s clandestine land

Another innocent soul down
But this time it’s our own
Making us all say goodbye
Because he was shot down by a drive-by
We hear the the streets are at war
But we won’t take it to consideration until the one we love it out that door
We now have to face the truth and embrace
So we can work together to solve this case
Working together we can start promoting positive
To put an end to all the negative
