I'll Often Stop and Think About Them Author: RaineDate:09/11/2013 13:14:59
I miss them. I miss those glorious towers. I miss seeing the sun shine in between them. I miss seeing them glitter at night over a downtown neighborhood that closed after dark. I miss using them to guide me thru the streets of the city. It didn't matter where I was or what time of day it was, I could look up and be guided by it.
I miss the days I worked in NYC and came up out of Penn Station and saw the Twin Towers. Now that I think about it, I miss the days we called them the Twin Towers. To this day, my heart leaps when I see them in a movie or TV show. I no longer look at them with sadness. but with gratitude of having the experience of seeing them. They were a part of my life. It took a long time, and I am not closed off to the sadness of that day, but I am at a place where I just miss those towers.
There are places I remember All my life, though some have changed Some forever, not for better Some have gone and some remain
All these places had their moments With lovers and friends I still can recall Some are dead and some are living In my life I've loved them all
But of all these friends and lovers There is no one compares with you And these memories lose their meaning When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection For people and things that went before I know I'll often stop and think about them In my life I love you more
Though I know I'll never lose affection For people and things that went before I know I'll often stop and think about them In my life I love you more In my life I love you more
