Just another day
Poured myself a cup
Children off to school
Husband just woke up
I got your letter
Finally arrived
Postmark dated 1985
Do I open up the past?
Is it too late for us to last?
From the first kiss
It all started on the bridge
You never left my mind
I kept you locked inside
From the first kiss
We were only kids
Told me we would make it
I waited, I waited, I waited for you
Is this just fate?
Messing with my head
I’m beyond the point
Of obsessing over things unsaid
Suspension
Help me then I fell
You know I’ve always wished you well
But I’m not the girl you once knew
You gave a present of the past
But I’m over you at last
From the first kiss
It all started on the bridge
You never left my mind
I kept you locked inside
From the first kiss
We were only kids
Told me we would make it
You know I waited, I waited, I waited for you
We really tried, darling, to say the least
But I had to move on and do what was best for me
You made your promise, I held on
But our time is long gone
It all started on the bridge
You never left my mind
I kept you locked inside
From the first kiss
We were only kids
Told me we would make it
You know I waited, I waited
From the first kiss
We were only kids
Told me we would make it
But we never, never, never
Did
