I see you stranger standing there
|
Far across the room
|
Do you remember when Forth Worth
|
was in bloom
|
|
You know it wasn't all that long ago
|
That we were in the dark
|
One touch would light up the
|
whole would with a spark
|
|
No one here tonight would guess how
|
wrapped up we were
|
|
Once I was the light of your life
|
You really made me shine
|
Every letter that you sent to me
|
Was a valentine
|
These days all we've got to say
|
Is how you doin, I'm fine
|
But once I was the light of your life
|
And you were the light of mine
|
|
Maybe the planets didn't line up right
|
Maybe the time was wrong
|
Maybe forever was a little bit too long
|
|
But still we had about as fine of time
|
As two true lovers could
|
Before the magic was up and gone for good
|
|
Even though I'm not much more than
|
a shadow now
|
|
Once I was the light of your life
|
You really made me shine
|
Every letter that you sent to me
|
Was a valentine
|
These days all we've got to say
|
Is how you doin, I'm fine
|
But once I was the light of your life
|
And you were the light of mine
|
