~ Last Date ~

It's over our love affair
Too late now, I find I care
Her sweet love no more I'll share
Now she's gone, I'm alone
I was wrong, should have known
Took her home on our last date
I search for a single way
To tell her what I had to say
I kissed her, watched her walk away
Set her free foolishly, destiny, misery
Tragedy on our last date

Took the ring from her trembling fingers
Brushed a tear from my baby's eye
Walked away, didn't know that
I'd soon miss her so
Guess I was too young to realize
So blind I couldn't see
How much she really meant to me
And that soon she would always be
On my mind, in my heart,
I was blind from the start
Lost love on our last date
