Sweet, gentle, quiet smile

I met her somewhere with her sweet gentle quiet smile

when I saw her, something shifted inside, I fell in love

with someone whom I knew, would never be by my side

so,...when I left, I said goodbye to that sweet, gentle, quiet smile

promising myself, I would never reveal to her what lived inside

now,...many years later, I thought that sweet gentle quiet smile

would have faded out of my heart and my life, still how hard

I tried, she never left, she's still with me, until,... I guess, the end

of my times.
