Afterglow

Accidental Poet



 

Never did know how it felt

The joy of kissing you

But it seemed all too soon

I’d know the pain of losing you

 

Do you know

What you left here with me?

And the part of me you took away

Smiles for you endlessly

 

Chorus:

It’s the afterglow

From your smile

It’s the afterglow

In my heart all the while

It’s the afterglow

I saw in your eyes

After all these years

Still, you have me hypnotized

 

To have you in my life

Just once was incredibly nice

And even if just for a moment

Heavenly to know that feeling twice

 

For what could be the reason

My life was blessed with loving you

The answer will haunt my grave

As then I’ll still be loving you

 

Chorus:

It’s the afterglow

From your smile

It’s the afterglow

In my heart all the while

It’s the afterglow

I saw in your eyes

After all these years

Still, you have me hypnotized

 

Chorus:

It’s the afterglow

From your smile

It’s the afterglow

In my heart all the while

It’s the afterglow

I saw in your eyes

After all these years

Still, you have me hypnotized

            No Andy, it's been with me now for 54 years and I don't see it departing anytime soon. Much to my delight. 😍 Thanks Andy.
