It seems so long ago,
The night you broke my heart.
When you boarded that plane,
My world was torn apart.
The taste of your last kiss
Rose like a passionate flame
Our love was entirely pure
But could not be tamed
Still I was left behind,
So you could pursue a dream.
A perfect life without me,
Picturesque as it would seem.
As your plane departed, soared,
I was hurting beyond words inside.
I was left to my devices for years later
Without your love to be my guide.
Never did I marry,
For you haunted my thoughts.
Every time I cried at night,
Reminded of the way we fought.
Instead I moved from my home
Never to return
When I saw you in the supermarket
And our old flame began to burn
It seems so long ago
When we reunited
I am truly thankful
That such wrongs were righted
Now we have a daughter
Whose heart I hope never breaks
Glad I am that you told our son
Not to make the same mistake
Still it seems so long ago
That hopeless misery
You are mine forever now
As we live on happily
