When I was with you
I'd hear a song of doves
And it told me that you would be
The only one I'd love
We told each other we'd be together
For all of time
High school sweethearts, puppy love
Wasn't it sublime
You are my perfect match
Together we are whole
And if you were to detach
I would be alone
Just half of one whole
College now, moving out
Far away from home
But together, we did stay
To start a life of our own
Money was tight, times were tough
We got a 'job' to make ends meet
We broke the law, but I don't care
We were together on those streets
You are my perfect match
Together we are whole
And if you were to detach
I would be alone
Just half of one whole
Sickness reared it's ugly head
You pulled away from me
I tried to help, but you were gone
I accepted my defeat
And yesterday I found some things
Of yours I had saved
So I took them out in the rain
And I left them on your grave
You were my perfect match
Together we were whole
And since you have detached
I'll always be alone
Just half of one whole
