A Love Once Lost

Amidst the clear blue sky
No sun shines for you and I
All the years of waiting
And you leave me in the cold?

Of all the hearts you’ve torn;
Left to die on snowy ground
Why did you choose me to kill?
I loved you most of all

No tear streams down your cheek
Your eyes are black and cold
I stare up at your crimson lips
Like fire against the snow

The memories rush back
Of years before, when you were mine
It seems like not so long ago
I held you in my arms

Your lips no longer smile
Your cheeks... no longer warm and soft
Cold as ice, your heart once red
Has slowly turned to black

And as you turn to leave
I wonder if you’ll ever know
How much that you have lost this hour
How much you’ve thrown away

Now hear my final words
If nothing else you’ll do...
You know, dear, that I love you
And I know
You love me too.
