TURN BACK TIME

Be still ! my restless, aching heart
You knew from the very first start
That there is a time and a season
And an age to fall in love.

But beyond doubt and every reason
You defied the stars above
When into your life he walked
And of love and friendship, he talked.

When you needed strength and inspiration
When you were alone in desperation
He shone like a candle in your darkest nights
Your world lit up in a thousand lights.

When he smiled, when he laughed
Your heat sang, but don’t be daft
You cannot right, what went wrong
Though your feelings shall remain strong.

The river has run its course
And life has to go on of course
Leave well alone and look to the future
Accept what cannot be with good cheer.

The ghost of the past shall remain forever
An ode to your affections, now and ever
But you cannot turn the clock back, never!
So be still, my restless, aching heart.
