Just like the waves wash over the sea

Memories of you are washing over me

Sweet memories whose beauty carries me away

Into the arms of a distant yesterday

Where love was our spring of happiness

& you were a river flowing with tenderness

Where I was the light in your eyes

Together you & I found lovers' paradise

Within your heart I found my home

With you in my life, I could never be alone

We shared a love so beautiful it brightened our skies

It made us see forever in each other's eyes

Within that touch of love we were born again...

Two hearts that flew upon the wings of heaven

Our souls set sail to a more beautiful horizon

Entwined as they breathed in the scent of our passion

For a single moment ..so perfect and serene

I can feel the way you & I used to be

But when I open my eyes ,it all withers away

& a sad thought drifts me to the shore of today..

Try as I might I can't turn back the time

A voice deep in the sea tells me you won't be mine

As a wave of sadness fills my heart with silent tears

& drowns me in the memory of you going away

it leaves behind your gentle whisper..so loud &clear

With all the tenderness your voice held

With all the love your heart ever felt

Like a mother sings to her baby a lullaby

You softly whispered goodbye...

A curtain of darkness descends upon my eyes

Beneath it hides the pain I feel inside

Yet in my heart I pray for better days to come

Holding no more sorrow for what our love has become

The shadow of your love will no longer cloud my skies

A light within my dawn made me realize

Amidst the darkness there will rise a sun

Somehow, someway life just goes on

Won't shed a tear over a river that ran dry

For I'll be a sun in someone else's sky
