Verse 1
                             
He was smitten the day that he saw her
                            
Working behind the counter that day
                             
She liked him and soon they were lovers
                              - 
Hoping for a love that would stay.

Verse 2
                              
The path in life sometimes hits a crossroad
                                  
He could see it here; they soon would part.
                         
Saddened by the love she had cherished 
                       
She said you’ll always be in my heart

She sang,

Chorus
          
You came to me
                   
And taught me about caring,
             
You’ve been to me 
                  
What no one’s ever been.
                                                      
Like two ships that must sail on we’ll go our separate ways,
                                   
But in our hearts we’ll be forever near

Verse 3
                          
Years go by they meet at the crossroads
                                  - 
Still connected and hearts intertwined
                           
Comfort by their long lasting friendship
                    
One last embrace they say good-bye

And she says

Chorus
