Yesterday and Today

I'm thinking right now
Of when we were so young
And our hearts were mighty
Ignorant-- but not wrong.

I remember that energy
That controlled us both,
When I thought of you baby
And held you strong.

In my arms you melted
But in your heart I died.
Please go back with me
Don't even ask me why.

Lets return some years
To when we were both young
And our love had no fears
As we kissed so long.

Our little thing that grew
Into the mightiest flower
Is always in my heart--
The concept of love is power.

Do you remember waking up
Thinking about us, first thing,
As our eyes opened and
This wasn't just a fling?

My soul still kisses you
With your sixteen year old face
And my nineteen year old blues fade
To disappear with disgrace.

I'm so in love with you
Remembering simple days
When our hearts grew
To become what they are today.

If we should hug somewhere
And kiss again with tears
Don't think it'll end again--
Don't have any fears.

Our love is stronger than the passing of years
And its timelessness will bring us near.
