We shared a love so long ago,
But then it had to end,
And yet, as soon as I saw you
The love came back again.
I knew it couldn’t last for long.
The hours we had were few,
And yet, I never regretted
The time I spent with you.
So leaving you the second time
Was much harder to do,
But when I left I promised you
That I’d come back to you.
