I told her I loved her once. I never lied. Through the treasure of her moment's pause, Came the music born of her own fear. I held her hand once, And I never wavered. Though uncertainty rained down upon our sands, Strength was found in the grains that held us firm. Perhaps our moment happened once, Perhaps it never ended, Because through the rain a ray of light, Her smile, her eyes, Heaven sent them both. At once there was all there was to know, Forgotten twice there came the measure of a man, My heart and soul embraced her forevermore, Moving on, yet never quite forgotten. I told her I loved her once. I never lied.
