Visited recently by the ghosts of girlfriends past, Memories that could have been if only longer we'd last. A lesson I've learnt from each memory, A tinge of sadness I feel for each story.
For those whom I've taken for flings - Please understand that I saw you as more than just playthings, Each experience taught me something new, And it's by these lessons that I remember you.
For those whom I was with for some time - Please understand that in you I saw personality sublime, You remind me that though Adam was born first, Without Eve in the world it'd be much worse.
For she whom I loved but we could never have been - Please understand that I saw in you something I had never seen, Affinity, fate, destiny, call it what you may, I knew you were the one I wanted to be with till our hair turned grey.
