So many years ago before I knew of love
I witnessed it cascade from angels high above
Graceful and pure it raced along the ground
And ripped right through me without a sound
It shattered my fragile and innocent heart
Cut it so deep and tore the pieces apart
It's healed now, black, dirty and scarred
My view of love has been twisted and marred
Now when I see love shine I wince and I shy away
The words forever and always haunt me every day
