Do you ever listen to the radio and a song comes on and there's a few lines from the song that just emotionally really affect you...?
I was thinking about this old song where the lyrics go like this:
If ever our love was concealed
No one can say that we didn't feel
A million things
And a perfect dream of life
Gone, fragile but free
We remain tender together
If not so in love, it's not so wrong
We're only human after all...
It makes me think of my first love. she was deeply religious and seeing me was against her religion so I suppose our year long relationship was her rebelling against her religious upbringing. Her dad was very strict about religion...and after we had that year, she suddenly went back to it again and decided she couldn't keep seeing me outside of marriage....
anyways....this song used to be on the radio a lot back then...and it just seemed like a good fit for how I was feeling.
Today even after so many years...this song comes on and it brings me back. I always wonder what would have happened if I had been born the same religion as her...
ironically, after that...I gave up on religion all together...it has no place in my life now.
