Though You Were Never Mine

Inevitable as it could ever be
Sweetest of times would pass by
Moments of Silence would just fly
Between you and I.

Sometimes I could never explain
Why this something I feel
Would just remain to you as plain
And would never burn in flames.

It's maudlin for me to say
That I am basking in the warmth
Of your presence, Of your praise
Though you were never mine.

I could never call you mine
I will just wait for the time
And if that time comes
I could forever be truly yours.
