Three Weeks
Three weeks...
It hardly seems enough time
to build an eternity of memories.
Three weeks...
So short a time for my fingertips
to memorize the atlas of your body.
Three weeks...
Time enough for me to know,
there'll never be another you.
You've taught me so much
of loving, of tenderness, of caring.
You've learned from me
my moods, my private thoughts,
my deepest feelings.
Oh, my love there is so much more
I would learn from you
if only there were time.
But, the day of parting
is even now knocking on the door.
You'll go other places,
meet new people.
Experience life without me.
Yet, don't be sad for me.
I've had three weeks
And, oh, how I've lived them.
