Every word was so perfect; you knew what to say.
And now my heart is broken, and it must pay.
For the price was so very great,
I tried to hold on, but it was too late.
But alas, the silence grew so very strong.
No more could I find where you belong.
So I backed away and gave the space,
As the tears filled my eyes and down my face.
For a love that is true and wanted as mine.
Has passed me by, like the days of roses and wine.
