The solace and joy that you found in me

The comfort you needed to set you free

Like the warmth that rains down from above

In all but in name

It was love

So many nights that I moved in you

Felt your heart restart, a beat renewed

A feat that we could both be proud of

In all but in name

It was love

For the days that were short whilst we kissed

For the nights that grew long when we missed

A touch from the hand that we dreamed of

In all but in name

It was love

Where once grew flowers is now only dust

Blue skies turned grey, dawn gave way to dusk

Soaked to the skin with the rain from above

Do you still call out my name?

Was it love?
