Life has parted us
with different paths to tread
but there is one thing
that has never changed for me:
this prayer to be with you.
Is it destiny
that brought us back together?
Our lives cross again
to answer my one prayer
for a future together.
Maybe this time’s good;
without the struggles of youth
but with aged wisdom,
this would be a chance for us
to give this old love a try.
Would you take this chance
and see, for what it is worth,
the results we’d have —
how the flowers would bloom here
in the fields of this love?
