Once

You were breathing for me baby

As the stars fell from the sky

Though the clouds were dark and weighty

They still reflected in your eyes

Though you may have found another

It’s true that you’re no longer mine

But you were once my lover

In another place and time

Long ago we vowed forever

You were the heartbeat in my chest

We stood hand and hand together

Clinging tightly we both confessed

But like the changing of the seasons

The air grew cold and flowers died

Against all rhyme and without reason

Love slipped away like drifting tides

Still that can’t change the way I loved you

Can’t take away the power we knew

Those days were fragments of forever

When I believed you hung the moon
