There would have been an us



You know we would have gotten to the mountain top.
Together we would have touched the stars.
Our happiness all the way up .
Forgetting the pains caused by our scars .
Our love story, a fable that makes everyone wonder.
It would have been a guide to those who sought love.
How we stayed without worry or fear they'll ponder .
And even how the flames of our love was impossible to turn off.
You would have been mine,
I would have been yours.
Everything would have fallen in line.
And there would have been an Us.
