Like A Flame

I heard the rain
as it skipped and rolled down the pane.
Sleep was almost here
But I stirred from not having you near.
We were apart
for the first time since you’d claimed my heart
I said your name
And I knew we would burn like a flame.
Now twenty years have gone
And I know how much I’ve done you wrong
I caused you pain
And I know that things can’t be the same.
But my love has a name
And it’s yours and it burns like a flame.
