I Loved Once


Long ago, I loved a girl.

She was beautiful and filled with grace.

The way she smiled, my heart began to race.

She blushed when I told her these three words.

I love you, you are my world.

She spoke back and said to me..

Because you love me, I want to be...

The most important thing in your life

The only one who matters.

Don't put anyone above me 

Don't try to leave

And don't walk away...

The moment I don't get what I want..

I will go astray.

I looked at her with kindest smile,

No ma'am, I must go away for a while.

I can not be here, with you today.

Until you realize all these things I can not pay.

I will love you correctly, if you would like...

But I will not love you out of spite.

To drop everyone I will not do.

But it doesn't quite matter because I've dropped you..
