Three Days

I had my love her with me

But only for three days

He waltzed in and took away my pain

Then walked out again today

Time is not my friend

It is never enough

One minute you are here

Then your gone and it gets tough

I cherish the time we have

Even though it passes too fast

I struggle to contain my emotions

While I pray to make it last

You come in and light up my life

Make everything seem right

Then the phone rings

And I know good-bye is in sight

No matter how short the time is

Is does not change a thing

My love for you will not die

That was my promise with this ring

I will start my countdown again

As I wait to see your face

I will keep our love alive

In this moment and this place
