Dusk 'Til Dawn

Was it the end of the beginning,

or the beginning of the end?

when we met for the first time.

We were two candles burning bright

burning all through the night,

It was the end of the beginning,

from dusk 'til dawn.

Was it I who loved you more,

or did I love you less?

when we said our final good byes.

We were two candles in the wind

as moonlight softly kissed our skin;

It was I who loved you more

from dusk 'til dawn.

I pretended you were mine

in the arms of another time,

holding hands in the mist of the rain.

Two candles burning bright

as tears flowed down the wick of night;

I pretended you were mine

from dusk 'til dawn.

oh my, i love this, the first two lines are platinum, but i noticed you segue each stanza very nicely with its own clever reversal in tense and sense. this is very , very good. impressive in many ways!
