ANCIENT HISTORY
Ancient history you and I
Destined to repeat ourselves
Old mistakes return to haunt us
No mystery to follow.
A long
time ago you told me your secrets
I never told you mine
You whispered into my heart
And stole my soul
No
future history will we make
No time
to mend the yesterday
You call me now with aged words
I continue to fall over again
As if yesterday were today
Only you leave me in the mist of memories
The past has returned to destroy us
I should have never remembered
And you should have never told me
Now I go into the shadows of the night.
No future history will we make
No time
to mend the yesterday
You are left with brittle memories
Alone in a past returned
Only an illusion of what could have been
Listening for a voice never to be heard.
Standing in the doorway
A breeze whispered your name
My heart ached for you
Knowing that you would never come again.
No future history will we make
No time
to mend the yesterday
Ancient history you and I
A passion lost
Gently we fade away
Leaving our memory in the wind.
