Has my mind deceived me
Played games with my heart
Was I destined from the beginning
Doomed from the start.

This isn't how I pictured it
All those years ago
As I gazed up at the stars
Under the soft moonglow.

You were by my side
There in the night
Together, sharing, loving
Your arms holding me tight.

As the years have slipped away
I 've never forgotten your touch
The sense of tender love
I still hunger for so much.

Now as I stand alone
Framed by the star's light
I still sense your presence
Out there in the night
