As I remember the story of us, my dear

I hope that the wind

Will whisper these words to thee:

Forgive me since I didn't realize

That what we had

Was a once in a lifetime

I'm sorry that it took me to lose you

To realize that

But is that not how things are?

I mean, we only realized that

Some things or someone are important to us

When they are no longer there

And I know that it's selfish for me to ask

From the heavens above

To have a second once in a lifetime with you

Thus I hope that you'll forgive me again

For asking this

It's just that my failed heart

Loved you deeply

That whatever I do

A piece of it; will always long for thee
