When I first laid my eyes on you,
A beautiful memory I will always hold,
At first about you I didn't have a clue,
But I know, my heart gave its love to your soul.
Together we held hands for a year,
A lovely year, a lovely year,
Then it was written, my fears,
For your voice I can no longer hear,
For your eyes were no longer clear,
For your body I can no longer get near.
Whenever, you, I wanted to see,
Emptiness was what it would be.
Whenever your caring voice I wanted to hear,
The air seemed to be silent and clear,
Whenever your warm hands I wanted to hold,
My hands were gripped by the chill air, cold.
Dear, I gave you everything,
I worked, cried, laughed and sweat for you,
But from you I've only gotten nothing,
I was foolish to not see this to be true.
For only four seasons we were together,
And now it lies in humiliation, tears and anger.
Based on a true story, true emotions and experiences.
