A DIFFERENT TIME A DIFFERENT PLACE
What did time,
And fate'
Have in mind?
When it seems too late;
That it's you I'd find.
Perhaps if it had been;
A different time,
A different place.
That I had first;
Seen your face.
Life would be so different.
Different options;
To be found.
But for now,
I'm stuck;
In a life that's unsound.
A life where,
I'm incomplete.
In a different time,
A different place.
It would have been you;
That I'd meet.
For now in limbo,
I float.
Lost at sea;
In a sinking boat.
So much love;
I have to offer and give.
Yet in a loveless relationship;
I continue to live.
Why weren't you there,
years ago;
To make my heart race?
At a different time;
A different place.
And fate'
Have in mind?
When it seems too late;
That it's you I'd find.
Perhaps if it had been;
A different time,
A different place.
That I had first;
Seen your face.
Life would be so different.
Different options;
To be found.
But for now,
I'm stuck;
In a life that's unsound.
A life where,
I'm incomplete.
In a different time,
A different place.
It would have been you;
That I'd meet.
For now in limbo,
I float.
Lost at sea;
In a sinking boat.
So much love;
I have to offer and give.
Yet in a loveless relationship;
I continue to live.
Why weren't you there,
years ago;
To make my heart race?
At a different time;
A different place.
