Only for one day
I loved you only for one day
For all my love there I did lay
Since that day when you went away
I have not loved the same again
When you collected each gold leaf
You took my cares however brief
If I never make it back to you my love
To breath the way I did before
You walked away and I closed the door
And I turned my back on the only person I ever adored
