LOVE ME AGAIN Years have passed since you left me, it seems like it was only yesterday. You held me close, said "I love you" in a sincere and heartfelt sort of way. We walked together hand in hand We danced the starlit night away. So right for each other, it seemed, but I knew that you couldn't stay. Love me again, hold me close again. Tell me that you love and need me. That's all I have ever asked from you.- Love me again before I set you free. I never thought you'd leave me here but our time together slipped away, Too much, too soon, we had it all then night turned into a dark day. You had a life to go back home to, and I knew that's where you belong. We said goodbye 'mid salty tears, we both tried to be so very strong. Now you are gone forever more, I never got to say a last goodbye. Now you sleep 'mid the stars and the night echoes my cry. Love me again, hold me close again. Tell me that you love and need me. That's all I have ever asked from you.- Love me again before I set you free. In dreams I see your face - In dreams I see your smile; My love lost to eternity - but memories last a long while. Memories last a long, long while. Countrymom 2/25/14 . |
