I never really thought
We´d ever meet again
But faith deals out the hands
We must take what is chosen
When in an idle glance you appeared

Time was frozen

No, I could never forget

I look upon your face
I can´t believe my eyes
Passing times often cruel
It fades youth like a flower
But you have never changed
Where the years but an hour?

No, I could never forget, never forget

Married, me?
Heavens no, I´m still single, but happy
To be free, unattached
And between you and me
Better that than unmatched

Though at times I feel lonely
But enough about me
Let´s drink to you and life

How have you been all these years?
Are you happy and well?
No, I guess I could tell
And your marriage it´s ended
Do your parents regret?
That´s not what they intended

No, I could never forget

Who could have ever known
Without a single word
That we´d come face to face?
There´d not been any reason
I thought all things must die

As a time or a season

No, I could never forget

I don´t know what to say
It´s like some crazy dream
The way the past returns
All my memories unbroken
Yes, I remember too
Every word that was spoken

No, I could never forget, never forget

Youth, a foolish age
We thought love was our treasure
But your father said no
You would marry someone
With a position and name

You´d receive life´s full measure
And he said with a smile
I´m sure you understand

So, with love in our eyes
We exchanged love-goodbyes
But your father was shrewed
All my unanswered letters
Forced me soon to conclude
Things had worked for the better

No, I could never forget

The hour is getting late
This place is closing down
Yes come I´ll walk you home
Through the streets dark and empty
Like in our foolish days of kisses stolen nightly

No, I could never forget

Each season was for us a season for our love
And we were not afraid as autumn turned to winter
As long as there´s youth, it is springtime forever

No, no I could never forget, never forget

It´s strange, the warmth I feel
In these moments together
We´ve recaptured the time
In the midst of our youth
When two hearts were in line
And were light as a feather
But we both know the truth
We must live for today

So, at last
If I may, if you´d like me to stay?
If this time we can share
What the past was concealing
If you´re lonely and care
If you have the same feeling
If, you´re remembering yet
All the things I could never forget
