Everlasting Love

I had a welcome mat

But you never came around

I left my light on

But you were nowhere to be found

I thought an afterthought

That maybe I was forgotten

You never asked me for my name

But I wasn't even in the book

Seems like a love that tried

Somehow was on our side

We fell in love so deeply

An everlasting kind of love

And love was on our side

There was no place to hide

It seemed to mean so much

An everlasting kind of love

Years ago, I was at your door

Asking you for directions

You said you loved another

And I wasn't even mentioned

As I play piano, I get this eerie feeling

You were never really there

I guess I must be dreaming

Seems how I really tried

But our love was denied

Somehow it was a lie

An everlasting kind of love

Then you took me for a ride

I was so hurt inside

You smiled and then you cried

An everlasting kind of love

Mom and dad said I sure was lost

Since all the time they're believing

Just what is difference

In my heart I'm always there

How can you in the art room

You said you had to go

I took it out on a shopping cart

Screaming in my mind, "It isn't so!"

Guess that's the way it goes

You seemed to love, I suppose

But I was at the end of my rope

An everlasting kind of love

I can't tell you how I loved

With shining stars above

With no ill thoughts about you

An everlasting kind of love

I took a walk, I was so in love

But I had nowhere to go

Everywhere I looked, I'd swear

I saw you in every window

Till I died inside from being all alone

Your love carried me on

I just kept on dreaming of your love

Seems like a love that tried

Somehow was on our side

What could we have done to save

An everlasting kind of love

And love was on our side

It seemed to mean so much

Shouldn't have lost touch

An everlasting kind of love

Seems like a love that tried

Somehow was on our side

We fell in love so deeply

An everlasting kind of love

Seems like a love that tried

Somehow was on our side

What could we have done to save

An everlasting kind of love
