Used To Be

I watched the sun come up today

Its beauty made me cry

I watched the sparrows fly away

They flew so very high

I stopped to pick a garden rose

And held it in my hand

I marveled at the one I chose

Its stem too weak to stand

I smelled the rain before it fell

Before it made a sound

I've really learned to love that smell

Like nothing else I've found

I watched the moon begin to rise

As the sun began to set

A beautiful glow lit up the skies

Something I won't forget

But I'd trade it all for one more day

When you were here with me

It's really a very small price to pay

For the way it used to be
