Tommy and Theresa

Tommy sent scriptures through the universe

Where the stars aline within this earth

He hadn't seen Theresa since the world was young

But her name still sat on the tip of his tongue

Tommy and Theresa

Back again

Years may bend but hearts don’t end

Time can’t steal what’s meant to stay

Tommy and Theresa found their way

She answered his call

Hair touched with gray

Eyes still bright as a summer’s day

“Tommy

” she whispered

Voice soft as a breeze

And his knees gave out like the autumn leaves

A thousand nights

A thousand dreams

But nothing’s sweeter than what this means

Tommy and Theresa

Back again

Years may bend but hearts don’t end

Time can’t steal what’s meant to stay

Tommy and Theresa found their way

Through wrinkled hands and weathered skin

They danced like they were seventeen

The moonlight smiled

The stars leaned in

Forever began where it had been
