Where she held fast to my hand.

I overheard softly from outside
Half the heart you had ever allowed
The love affair lost in the spotlight
And the dream I remembered out loud

I saw you there heart strung and singing
Wearing faces that remembered mine
The notes you had wrote for me fading
And the memories washed out in rhyme

I've long since forgiven our ending
But I couldn't have been less prepared
The half of my heart you left ringing
And the wonder of seeing you there
