Love Takes Over

Our love began quickly, like a rocket headed into space.

Unstoppable, amazing, dangerous, but with such beautiful grace.

It ended as quickly as it began, the rocket lost it’s power.

It came down in a crashing blaze, in an unfortunate shower.

We said our goodbyes, and went our separate ways.

Not looking back, but looking forward to better days.

But as I move forward all I can see ahead is your smiling face.

Around every corner, every street, in every lonely place.

I see you in every movie, hear you in every song…

Did we make a mistake, can we go back and fix what went wrong?

I can’t shake you from my head, I’m trapped in the love we once made.

As time passes, your memory continues to brighten, instead of fade.

If I called you today would you say you’ve felt the same?

Maybe we can start over, and no longer assign the blame.

Start over, forget the pain, try again, clean the slate.

Love like this is rare, it isn’t luck or chance, it has to be fate.

Take my hand and let’s take the first steps again.

It won’t be easy & tears may fall, but love will take over in the end.
