Even though
by Corena cumberbatch
Praying for love, true love,
thinking this is it this time,
only to be hurt again.
I gave up on love gave up hope of God ever answering my pray,
Then you came along.
Our eyes met and I could not beleive what I was about to do,
I got up from my chair and walked the distance just to say hello to you.
Through times good and bad you were there,
First as my friend and then my love.
But then came a time that ripped us apart,
You said you would never leave,
But then that day did arrive,
You handed me a letter and walked away,
I couldn't stop the tears that came from my eyes.
I prayed to God how can this be that you would send him,
Only then to take him away,
Please God don't send another,
I wanted him to stay.
Time passed by and I tried to forget you,
My friends could not utter you name,
And although I had loved another,
my love for you could not replaced.
Then came the day I opened my door and saw you standing there,
As you placed a hand upon my heart you said I know I'll always be here.
Though the time we spend together is only a little compared to the time apart,
I love you now,
And you love me still,
Even though we are still apart.
