Days of Future Past (170 words = 401-231)
Couples walk home. Perhaps they'd understand.

I think of all those love letters I wrote as a child ... and never sent you. There were always a million tomorrows. I once wrote that I wanted to be immortal if you'd be there with me. How many years has it been... I only found out that you were ill from a blood disease when it was too late. How soon until I see you again? My ex-boyfriend never understood when I tossed at night and called out your name. Maybe he knew you were a rival he could not replace. I survive the hours, the seasons, the years that you're not here. Yes, I love you.

It's already night but I can still see. Now I seem to realize what you once tried to tell me, just what you want to be, you will be in the end.

Did you came back last night to give me a love-bite, clad in white satin, frozen in time, as young and beautiful as ever?

[Verse 1]
Nights in white satin, never reaching the end,
Letters I've written, never meaning to send
Beauty I'd always missed, with these eyes before
Just what the truth is, I can't say anymore

[Chorus]
'Cause I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, I love you

[Verse 2]
Gazing at people, some hand in hand
Just what I'm going through they can't understand
Some try to tell me, thoughts they cannot defend
Just what you want to be, you will be in the end

[Chorus]
And I love you
Yes, I love you
Ah, how I love you
Ah, how I love you

[Flute solo: Ray Thomas]

[Chorus]
'Cause I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I love you
'Cause I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I love you
