Love Doesn't Stay

Into a life of melancholy

A gust of wind that rushed

Too soon to get your head around

Was it love, or plain lust

Dinner dates and fine wine

Sweetest words, dreamy eyes

So much to talk, hours to pine

Words to please or just a pack of lies

Building castles in the air

Holding hands, romantic trysts

Living life like a fairy tale

Too good to be true; it usually is

You can't place that one moment when

You lose the spark, but carry on

Things get a common place as they will

You know you have lost that dream run

You just felt he was The One

The key to your heart, he did seem so

He still does yet it feels like

Love just flew out the window

And again you go in search

For that bend in the road, a change of song

To take a turn, or change a path

Coz love won't stay back too long
