WHERE DID IT GO
CARMEN MCRAE
A table for two in the dark,
The music was dreamy and slow.
This was our rendezvous,
You’d order wine for two,
I was in love with you.
Where did it go?
A fireplace burning so bright,
We always made love by the glow.
Then we were like one,
Perfection was ours to know.
Where did it go?
Yes, our day in the sun
Is all over and done
Like a flower that blossomed and died.
Two people who walked in the sand
Now walk in the cold winter snow.
All that was warm and gay
Suddenly went away,
Leaving me here to say,
Where did it go?
No, we couldn’t hang on
To a dream that was gone,
For we lost it, but where did it go?
The music was dreamy and slow.
