A Life Shared
My, oh my how time does fly
I look back and I think
On all the times of life
we’ve had
Such memories that I keep.
We were mere children when we
met
So very long ago
Searching for that friend for
life
For love, could we make it
so?
Trouble here and trouble
there
We both had our share
Bad times, sad times, mad
times too
Even so you always cared.
Looking back on friends we
miss
Some family forever gone
Loves that failed, children
derailed,
You and me we never let go.
Hand in hand we’d walk this
land
Never to be alone
A promise made so long ago
The same as written in stone.
We’ve had this one life to
live
And with nothing had it all
Me and you we always knew
Stay true and neither would
fall.
To this in retrospect my love
Best friend forever more
As we grow old in each
other's arms
My love for you still soars!
