Analysis of For I Believe Our Love Is True, by Fred M. Lassonde
For I Believe Our Love Is True, by Fred M. Lassonde
The miracle was when I met you
You seemed to take a liking to me too
You being you and I being me
It did not seem likely you see
Yet you liked me and I liked you
We were truly soul mates too
Then as this world goes
You thought wrong and why who knows
Yet I still long to hold you
Now I do not know what to do
For the Devil does play tricks
Your misconception still sticks
I try to change your mind
But Satan has you blind
To the Love meant only for you
I pray, I know not what else to do
The miracle was when I met you
You seemed to take a liking to me too
You being you and I being me
It did not seem likely you see
Yet you liked me and I liked you
We were truly soul mates too
Then as this world goes
You thought wrong and why who knows
True Love never knew a smooth trail
Yet I was hopeful that was an old wives tale
For I still long to hold you
Oh I still long to hold you
Now your gone and I am left to see
That you now longer want to hold me
Our Love was never meant for this
Yet gone you are now thinking amiss
What we need is another miracle
Your heart needs to come to see
We are soul mates and we are able
To see I was meant for you and you for me
True Love never knew a smooth trail
Yet I was hopeful that was an old wives tale
For I still long to hold you
For I believe our Love is True!
