Not so long ago, there was you and I
What happened, we thought would never be...

A child born on Christmas Eve
His mother died the minute he lived...

I can never tell
The difference of his hands...

For a moment, I feel lost in his embrace
Everything in the world I hold dear...

I caught a swallow
Placed it in a cage...

I thought it would forever be
Just you and me...

She is the ghost lingering
At the back of your mind...

There’s this sad gleam in his eyes,
The faraway stare into darkness...

How can someone’s hand fit in yours
And be so with another...

Words can only capture so much
But could only hope to reach...

He never had the courage to tell
How he felt about her...

The past seems only yesterday
It's hard to believe what slept away...
