Though twenty years have quickly passed
Your memory did not fade
One brief contact fanned flames again
Of my feelings for you! – a special one.

You, my friend, my old flame
Fondly remembering my name,
You never knew how much I pined
Or longed to be in your arms entwined
In a passionate embrace – a kiss or two
You never knew how I feared loving you.
