We fell in love once, We can do it again, All it takes, Is for your memory to regain,
I will love you, Forever and a day, I will wait for you, And repeat the vows I had to say,
In one accident, Our futures changed, Your memories lost, Our future was being rearranged,
You in a coma, fast asleep, I sat by your bedside, Wishing you well, I hoped and I cried,
When you woke, It was me you didn't recognise, I told you I was your husband, You were shocked, surprised,
We'd been intimate, Many times before, But with your memory gone, My arms felt poor,
I wanted to touch you, To cuddle you and embrace, I wanted to be the person, To put a smile upon your face,
I wanted you to remember, That what we had was precious, But you couldn't see what I could, You were confused and restless,
Five years of memories lost, I wish we could get them back, Instead I came home, And saw the bags that you had packed,
You walked out of my life, But I didn't give up you, One day I had hoped, That back in my arms you'd flew,
But with all my attempts, I seemed to push you further away, So I gave you the divorce, And out of your life I'd stay,
I admitted defeat, I set you free, To find the real you, And perhaps come back to me,
Months pass, And not a word, Then one day, You were walking the curb,
To find me of all people, Love had shown you the path, You'd walked the same journey you had before, This time on snow not grass,
We fell in love before, And now it's happening again, You can't have pretty rainbows, Without a little rain.
