Lest we forget,
your dates as a younger man
like how when you were 9,
you fell in love because she was
the 1st girl you'd seen throw a cricket ball
You knew that you'd be together for the
rest of your lives
Now you sit alone in the sun,
in the backyard, feeding the birds
reading the newspaper
Thinking about the love that you shouldnt have lost

Love that you lost,
love that you shouldnt have,
Love that you lost,
love that you shouldnt have,
Love that you lost,
love that you shouldnt have lost

When I was a child, I didnt see her much
She passed away before i was 5
I was so young that it barely affected my life
Then one day when i asked you
told me she was magnifacent
all that i had was your word and a photograph
But that look in your eyes told me all that
I needed to know

Love that you lost,
love that you shouldnt have,
Love that you lost,
love that you shouldnt have,
Love that you lost,
love that you shouldnt have lost
Love that you lost,
love that you shouldnt have,
Love that you lost,
love that you shouldnt have,
Love that we lost,
love that you shouldnt have lost
