I Fell In Love

I fell in love

So long ago

When my hair was tied in bows

I chased him round the slide and then

Caught him, kissed him, smothered him

To my surprise he ran away

Then I chased him the next day

I fell in love

I fell in love

So long ago

Desks lined up in a row

He taught me how to figure math

I really just asked for help cause he made me laugh

I thought of him night and day

Before all the rainy days

I fell in love

I fell in love

So long ago

I gave my body and my soul

I didn’t know love was so vain

I couldn’t anticipate that kind of pain

My heart ripped out

I sat alone

I fell in love

I fell in love

So long ago

I learned how to fit the mold

All grown up, still not old

His words like music to my soul

So free from rules and innocence

Yet captured by his artful grin

I fell in love

I fell in love

So long ago

Adventures followed, Loves delight

Constant battles, strife, and fights

Still, we grew in beauty then

Decided that we should be friends

Love came crashing to an end

I fell in love

I fell in love

So long ago

He touched my heart

Healed my body and soul

He loved me though I loved him not

He’s the only one I forgot

When I fell so hard back when

I fell in love
