Once in a lifetime comes a love,
So sweet, so pure, so rare.
A flashing, brilliant, blinding light,
Like a comet through the air.
A love without rhyme or reason,
That knew no space or time;
Wrapped itself around my soul,
And captured this heart of mine.
A once in a lifetime dreams come true,
Of a love that knows no end;
Had been there with me though the years,
In the one I'd called my "friend"

There was something there so special,
Mere words cannot explain;
The way our hearts were intertwined,
And how that still remains.
A fabric woven tightly,
Each strand a color rare;
An intricate pattern of richness,
With beauty beyond compare.
Once in a lifetime comes a love,
With no beginning or no end;
The sweetest gift I ever shared,
With the one I call my " friend "
