Analysis of My Lost Love
The tree's on the cliff,
Are Dark and bold,
The stars in the sky,
A magic they hold,
I hear the river running,
Down a little water fall,
Sitting on the rocks,
You and I, enjoy it all,
We gather our thoughts,
As we sit side by side,
Moving closer and closer,
As time Slowly goes by,
We're in each other's arms now,
And the river can see,
It's creating a mist,
Around you and me,
You tell me you miss me,
And I've missed you too,
It's been such a long time,
Since I've been with you.
