They remember the time…
It was fresh, it was new…
When it was their secret…
And only they knew…
Remembering the feelings…
Those trembling words…
And subliminal messages…
That only they heard…
Remembering the moments…
Stolen from each other…
And the conversations…
That ended in the gutter…
Remembering the chills…
When their eyes first met…
The flash of electricity…
Moments they’ll never forget…
Remembering the kiss…
That sparked it all…
A single strike of lightning…
That became a fireball…
Remembering that night…
When everything twisted…
Reality became fantasy…
As inhibition was lifted…
Remembering the aftermath…
The confusion that followed…
A host of mixed messages…
And bitter pills swallowed…
Remembering those words…
Cutting like a knife…
Destroying each memory…
Made deep in the night…
Remembering the hurt…
All the tears and the pain…
That drove a wedge between…
And vowed never again…
Remembering the bond…
Lost with a roll of the dice…
And those starlight lovers…
Who paid the ultimate price…
