Even i need love

i held her tightly i my arms,
her soft breath in my ear,
she murmured,half in,half out of sleep,
i cudnt move for fear
of breaking up the magic spell we'd been part of so long,
i knew that she would soon be going back to where she belonged.
You cannot know hard it is
to let your lover go,
you tell her just how much she means
to you but never knows,
that though your hearts still beat as one,
and promises are made,
she cannot stay ,she wont remain
but memories wont fade.
I wish i had all of her time
i wish i'd got there first,
i wish she'd stay and be my bride,
the leaving is the worst,
and so i see her to the door,a kiss to dry her tears,
a hug, a smile and then she's gone,
i'm left with all my fears,
Will he find out? will she be safe,
will she come back to me?
I have to wait till next she comes,
to me eternity.
Why cant i have her for my own,
i know that its not fair.
I sit and wait, sit all alone,
some things you have to bear.
When love arrives,the one you want is sometimes hard to hold.
Its not my fault she married him,
we met when we got old.
