Time eludes us all but we can conquer it in memories
Sweet fragrances in the air, mystifying countless thoughts.
The senuous tingling when you touch me.
Sweet fragile essence, a spiritual connection.
Silver-haired, faded beauty, our youth aging through time
But yet our hearts flutter with youthful spirit.
Hold my aged hands in yours,
while we reminisce of our time together.
Time may have slowed our pace, but we can still dance.
If not standing, then at least in our hearts.
Gentle love, tender compassion, still flows
within in our withered bodies.
The years have mellowed our dreams,
but we still dream on.
The flowers sleep under a blanket of snow,
and we may not have tomorrow.
Embrace me my darling, as we listen to our song.
No longer give thought to the time we have left
But only the precious moments we share now.
No my love, these are not tears of sadness,
They are tears of loyality,
love, and devotion we share.
Because when we hold hands, it is not just love ~
We are holding each other up, to dance till the last sunset.
We overcame our struggles and hardships.
And most of our dreams came true.
Silver hair, a shoulder to lean on,
soft whispers, serenity.
For all our remaining years.

As Time Goes By Lyrics
~~~~~~~~~~~
You must remember this
A kiss is still a kiss
A sigh is still (just) a sigh
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by
And when two lovers woo
They still say: "I love you"
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As time goes by
Moonlight and love songs - never out of date
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by
