And so

And so he held your hand for five minutes
At least he held you
And so he made you feel like a princess
For a while
At least you know that royal feeling
And so he held your gaze
With his wonderful smile
And pierced your soul
With his sparkling blue eyes
They were fleeting moments
But not lies.

So you cry and say
Now he’s not mine
But for those few weeks and hours
He was totally yours
Within you for all time
Those careless whispers
That you almost heard
He kept his word
He just couldn’t keep
His nerve.
