Story of theirs

So it shouldn't come
As any ones surprise
She likes to laugh
And he likes to see
the joy In her eyes

It's plain to see
What is
What was
And what could be

But alas
Those damned forces

So it shouldn't come
As any ones surprise
After all
Everyone but them
Had made up their minds

Perhaps
In another life
In an other land
In another time
Perhaps

And if the crinkle of the eyes
Weren't enough to signify
That this could work
In an other life

Just take
His willingness to hurt
Coupled with hers to feel ties
Yes, it shouldn't come, as no surprise
