Love of my Life
By Rocking Tom 64
Verse 1
We often travelled by train together
To our school; discussed whether
We should go to spend some evenings
In bars, restaurants, or meetings
With the other students we knew.
We firmly stood in each other’s shoe,
You told me your story, I told mine,
I adored to see your blue eyes shine.
Chorus
You’re not the love of my life,
You can’t because that’s my wife!
But I think you might have been,
Maybe you just should have seen
That I was ready to do
Everything for you,
If I was not such a waverer.
Verse 2
So it happened simply like it had to:
I deeply fell in love with you.
I tried to make you clearly see
That only you mattered to me.
However, you were not impressed!
You even told me I had messed
By turning our friendship into love.
You were not releasing a white dove.
Chorus
You’re not the love of my life,
You can’t because that’s my wife!
But I think you might have been,
Maybe you just should have seen
That I was ready to do
Everything for you,
If I was not such a waverer.
Verse 3
The friendship nevertheless continued,
Although I was really choked.
We were welcomed at a wedding,
As the man gave his bride the ring
You suddenly held my wet hand.
I was surprised and didn’t understand!
Then the opportunity was gone,
I had such a tough time holding on.
Chorus
You’re not the love of my life,
You can’t because that’s my wife!
But I think you might have been,
Maybe you just should have seen
That I was ready to do
Everything for you,
If I was not such a waverer.
Bridge
Fortunately I met my future wife thereafter,
Who allowed me well to overcome the disaster.
She taught me how to gain confidence.
We’re still together, and it makes sense.
Chorus
You’re not the love of my life,
You can’t because that’s my wife!
But I think you might have been,
Maybe you just should have seen
That I was ready to do
Everything for you,
If I was not such a waverer.
