Catch me if you can
You only have me here and now,
there is no substitute for love,
she invites and she passes,
and there might never be a second invitation
or another train to take you for a ride.
I love you and will do so always,
but I am only here and now,
and love is the most passing of brief moments.
Take me, and you might keep me,
or you might lose me,
and a loss of love might never be recovered,
there is no overcoming a regret of love,
especially if she was never taken care of.
