First Time

I fell for your beguiling words I read much from your lips Your eyes pierced the dark night And I lost all sense of time Your hand was warm, but you froze When did we meet for the first time? I spoke of love, pain, and you, well You talked about your last shopping trip And what you had for breakfast How happy we could be here if you'd wanted to Nevertheless, we captured it in a, click, photo, click When did we meet for the first time? The photo speaks louder than a thousand books It holds on to time that passes by And it has yellowed over the years. I have lost sight of you, but you never once got in touch. When did we meet for the first time?
