The Lament of BabyCat and Buddee

Lament

I would trade all of my tomorrow's for one single yesterday
One more chance to hold your paw in mine
One more chance to say I am sorry
To beg your forgiveness
To tell you how much I love you.

I would trade all of my tomorrow’s for one single yesterday
But that chance is gone.
I destroyed our love with jealousy
I destroyed the beauty we had
And I died unforgiven.

Oh, Prince of my heart and my life,
My soul cries out to you.
Accept the apologies of my humble heart,
For I promised to love you through all eternity
And eternity has not ended yet.

Rejoice

Beloved forgive me also
I never meant to hurt you like I did,
I expected you to understand,
I expected you to accept;
I thought you knew
My love for you
Would never die.

It is still there,
It is still strong.
You do not need one more yesterday
To ask my forgiveness,
For you have my eternity of love.
