Back I went to old Alton town
I was worried that long gone
Memories would get me down
Those eyes for me always shone
I walked the lane where you did live
It's changed so much since that day
At the back door you would give
A sweetest smile and say "Hey"
Once alone in your own room
Your full lips I used to kiss
For you were a precious bloom
You're still what I really miss
The long years have passed us both by
Our ways took a different path
I recall you dark brown eyes
Us cuddled warm by the hearth

Such sweetness recalled is both bitter-sweet.
ReplyDeleteI love this! Nostalgia with a little regret--but what a fine memory!
ReplyDeleteOh those memories from way back....there was a brown-eyed lad in mine. Loved this, Robin.
ReplyDeleteAh, sweet memories! And sweetly told.
