Romance Of A Lifetime



Romance Of A Lifetime
Author: Mark V. Markov

Love is not so far away
I hear the angels say
And I still miss her,

Sound of hope
Or maybe just a ghost
Like a twirling in my mind
It makes the heart wonder,

Somehow will our love survive,
Will she forever be mine
If not now then someday,
But here comes rain,
The rain along with thunder,

Silently at night I lay
Thoughts they pass
They pass me by
Gently passing through my mind
And once again I begin to wonder,

Was it ever our destiny?
Will she be forever with me?
Will someday the promise of our love?
Will it ever come true to be?

Was it meant to be forever?
Romance of a lifetime
Or is this just a plain,
Plain lonely tragedy,

I guess it's written in the stars
Way there in the heavenly heavens
But who am I to tell
This heaven from hell

A love from pain
Yet in my life
So far all I know and see
Is

The rain falling heavily on me,
Love is not so far away
I hear the angels say
And I still miss her,

Sound of hope
Or maybe just a ghost
With the twirling of my mind
It makes the heart wonder,

Will she be forever mine?
Was it ever meant to be?
Romance of a lifetime?
