As Sweet as the First

Sometimes you start to wonder -

“Will it ever be the way it seemed

That it was really meant to be”.

Till then, I’ll just hold on to a memory -

Like the final light still shining

In forever’s night.

But don’t you worry. No don’t worry.

I can hold on for forever and never let us go.

And as time it fades into a mist,

I’m living for the girl whose lips I’ve kissed

A thousand times,

Each still as sweet as the first.

Who are we to ask for fairytales?

Maybe “good as it can be”

Is good enough for you and me.

So we’ll just make another memory

To shine so bright, to keep us

In our darkest nights.

I’ll be with you; you’ll be with me -

No matter how the wind blows,

No matter how a life goes,

No matter what the future brings

If it brings more of you to me.
