She would say love and romance
And speak in words reflecting time passed
She would caution and smile
And proclaim the myth that all love will last
She would say love and romance
And in her heart a fire would still burn
Within her eyes a few soft tears
And you could still see how she yearns
She would say love and romance
And listen at the thunder of my tears
The tremor in my voice and heart
Listening to my even greater fears
She would say love and romance
And in those words the world would turn again
And so
I think of her in love and romance
And love her more deeply than she will ever know...
