Once, only once,
Had I clasped your hands into mine!
While withdrawing them slowly,
You had closed your eyes!
And I knew, your eyes were filled
With dreams of the days ahead!
Once, only once,
Had I rested my head onto your shoulders!
While withdrawing them slowly,
You had closed your eyes!
And I knew, your eyes were filled
With dreams of the days ahead!
Once, only once,
Had I placed my lips onto yours!
While withdrawing them slowly,
You had closed your eyes!
And I knew, your eyes were filled
With dreams of the days ahead!
Those which were so sweetly sworn!
Where are those promises gone!
