Took a box down read this card, then I realized
That you felt things for me
As I read the words, they symbolized
A love so true, how could that be
I?m looking back in your eyes of blue
Never had the faintest clue
I?m looking back to a love so true
If I?d only really looked at you
I?m looking back from a different view
If the forest had no trees, I might see you
Then I put the card, back in its case
I held those memories
And I knew that fate had taken place
That let us find our separate destinies
