Today, I walked by that old ground
It had an iron gate, flowers aroundColourful butterflies were flutterin'
Ladies on bench, useless mutteringLight hues of skies were so pourin'
I smiled even though it was boringTo wander around neglected parks
Which are shaded by soaring larksBut I walked over to that huge tree
Where we had swung...light 'n' freeStepping around, a nostalgia kisses
As a ringin' laugh, my heart missesMy eyes find your soft pretty name
Carved on crusty bark without aimHow I had emblazoned it with care
Years ago, we had minutes to spareAway from this worry, how to earn
All we did was play, smile 'nd learnWhen God let us taste soft paradise
I felt lost in our childhood's repriseWhen all I ever liked was your curls
Your softly trodden steps 'nd swirlsIt so entranced me, your innocence
Oh! how we reveled in evanescenceYour voice ringed like a windchime
But..I lost you to the contest of time'N' now I wish to play lost an' found
Once again, in this old...
