Love, Again

Do you remember that fateful night

As we stood under the rain and lightning

Remember how tight I held on to you

As the noise was rather frightening

The small roof above our head

Barely concealed your single frame

I entwined my body around yours

As you passionately whispered my name

Do you remember how we felt

When we were stranded together

We got lost away into our world

In that brilliant romantic weather

The tension filled heat between us

Complemented the chill in the air

I wanted to confess my love for you

As you played with my wet hair

Do you remember the thrill

Of being caught up in love and passion

We had been friends for really long

Yet we couldn't ignore the obvious attraction

My kohl had dripped down my face

As you gently wiped it away 

When I wanted to pour out my feelings

"I love you", you did say

Do your remember the look I had

On my face as you kissed me

The lightning brought me closer to you

God's plan it was, I could see

We just looked at each other

As the torrent rain reduced to a drop

We wanted to stay there forever

The rain then finally stopped

Do you remember that last minute

As you dropped me back to my place

I did not want to leave you

Wanted to be locked in the embrace

As I slowly walked away from you

My heart was smiling and flying high

Love sure is a wonderful feeling

I knew it would last till I die

Do you remember the days after

The moments we together created

Those sly smiles and stolen kisses

The silly times that we debated

Today we sit here together

Holding hands and watching the rain

The thrill and smiles remain intact

As we fall in love again
