Strangers In Paradise

Life was so perfect but wasn't it all dull.
One day much like another and no pull.
Then my eyes were open for I had a taste.
It was like everything before was a waste.

I saw you for the first time in my mind.
You were made for me; One of my kind.
In a split second everything became new.
There wasn't just me; For there was you.

Life had gained meaning; I noticed you.
You had changed; I had changed, too.
Strangers in paradise we had become.
We had erred together; Wasn't it fun.

The garden had became so very small.
We had a taste; But we wanted it all.
Innocence was gone but love replaced.
Because of our sin we became disgraced.

But I still had you; You meant much more.
What could be greater than the lady I adore?
We share a common bond; Heaven can wait.
I am just glad I knew you before it was too late.
