I wish those memories

Were were never made

The ones that bring

Tear drops

Running down my face

And I wish those moments

never came

When I’d look at you

And fall in love again.

Those velvet nights,

How we brought

Down the moon

Then lit up the sun

Drinking each moment

Like it was the last one….

 

I wish I could breathe

Like I did back then

Every breath brings pain

I’m losing again.

Now a heart wrenching hunger

Grips my soul

A song unsung

A story untold.

What I thought

We would be

Is not who we are

Just a sad melody

On a steel guitar

 

What could have been

Is only a dream

A blueprint of love

An outlandish scheme

And day by day

As the plan comes together

I look in your eyes

I can’t see forever.

Another chance shot

To make things right

Another lost promise

On a starless night
