LISA: AN ODE TO LOST LOVE
(T. Beechey)
Lord,it's forever since we've spoken! I honestly feel an eternity's gone
Somebody check,my calendar's broken as I can't imagine time has moved on
Leaps and bounds time has taken,impossible strides from then until now
Surely I must have been mistaken,an error in judgment overlooked somehow
Let's not allow so much time to pass
In between moments which we share
Since time,not unlike blades of grass
Always fades within the chilling air
Looks,it's said,can be deceiving;inside my heart,you're still the same
So beautiful and I'm disbelieving any time has either went or came
Life has treated you well,it seems --- if there's any flaws,they're not shown
Steadily holding fast to your dreams,allowing reality no chance to disown
Let's not allow so much distance to grow
In amongst moments reserved for two
Since time,not unlike fresh fallen snow
Always fades within the warming hue
Love shall always exist between us,indifferent of time or uttered vows
Sentiments fall,but that doesn't mean us...after all these years,our bond endows
Luck be with you in your travels ahead,I'll see you again,somehow,somewhere
Soon or perhaps a lifetime instead,at least I'm certain we'll again be a pair
Let's not allow so much time to pass
In the midst of moments that we share
Since time,not unlike polished brass
Always fades within the wafting air
