A View For Eternity

The
first time in a long time
I've seen your gorgeous face
Lately I've obviously been deprived
Beauty lies in just one place
I
thought I remembered the perfection
But that dusty memory was so outdated
Like the first amazing time we met
Feelings so strong I was shortly sedated
I
stood near her again in shock
Wondering if she's in shock too
Melting in your mere presence
Wishing I could still be with you
Unable
to think clearly
Unable to stop my love
Unwilling to leave your memories
Unsuccessful at falling out of love
And every attempt to capture your heart
Simply wasted my time
Eventually stripped out of my mind
Always left me here crying
Do
you like what I'm doing with myself
Are you stuck with my past
Completely set on the opinions
Against any chance of giving it a shot
I think we could hook it up and make it hot
I am the one you were in love with
Nothing changed here
I know nothing changed there
