Arkansas Writer: I Loved You In 72

I loved you in 72, but I didn’t know what to do.

To win your love for my very own.

To see your face made my heart tremble.

The thought of your embrace, it warms me still.

As I dream of when I kissed your cheek I remember,

The fragrance of perfume in the air.

And my soul still surrenders.

Every time in my mind you take my hand.

I loved you night and day but you threw my heart away.

I’m so lost without you dear.

My life was yours just for the claiming.

I would have followed you till the end of time.

As I gaze at the picture you gave me,

there’s a thrill that’s real then comes the pain.

And my mind still, goes reeling.

‘membering all the times we had.

I loved you long ago and I still love you so.

I don’t believe my heart will ever change.

You showed me life could be so precious.

Full of happiness, thrills beyond belief.

As I look at all the stars above me,

once again I recall our final kiss
underneath that special star.

The tingles still dance across my skin.

Oh how the tingles still dance across my skin.

I loved you in 72.
