Song: sweet romance
Alone in the shadows, of a willow tree
I watched from the dark
As you crossed through the park
Coming closer to me
Those brief moments return of the day we first met
The time we shared with that special care
Free from all jealousy
There must be a distant place
Far from every wrong face
Tears won't fall by chance
On this sweet romance ...
Where the light of the moon, and the lay of the land
Brightened the way of so many nights
Helping us understand
The line that we crossed, to climb those hills
Gave us the strength to never fear
The hurting talk folks want to hear
There must be a different place
Far from every wrong face
Tears won't fall by chance
On this sweet romance ...
When they hear, of our last goodbye
They'll have to seek another dream to surprise
With desperate lies
As we parade, far from these streets
We'll be side by side, livin life in pride
With love's lullabye
There must be a distant place
Far from every wrong face
Tears won't fall by chance
On this sweet romance ...
