Yesterday I felt a rush of memories from the past
Things I had not thought of for some time
How we used to climb the hills
and make love in the grass
How you loved to hear me call you mine
And I've called to see how you are
Now that we've grown so far
And I'm wondering
if you think about these things too
And if I'm just a shadow now
I don't mean to intrude
But it's the right of a lover
To share these things with you
Heard you say you're happy now
there's new things on your mind
Lord knows I don't want to spoil your mood
But if you cast your eyes around
for one last look behind
You'll see the ghost of one who loved you true
Where kisses have lived and died
Like comets across your sky
A flash of light who's only passing through
And if I'm getting too intense
I don't mean to intrude
But it's the right of a lover
To say these things to you
I remember when I saw you last
a year ago July
You climbed that hilltop
one more time with me
We watched the angel shadows pass
across the summer sky
Silently they drifted out to sea
And we say we have no regrets
But I never could forget
The tear I thought I felt upon your face
I loved you then and I love you now
It may be wrong to say
But it's the right of a lover
Or at least it's a lover's way
It's the right of a lover
or at least it's a lover's way
