She was a sometimes love

An every-now-and-then touch

That momentarily

Brought out the best in me

I didn't think that much of it

My heart can easily love it or leave it

Told myself I didn't need it

And years have gone by

She's moved on, so have I

Or have I?

That part of my life

That chapter I thought I'd closed

I close my eyes, but she's not gone

Oh, why am I still holding on?

Sometimes, love

Hangs around a little too long

I never thought a thing about the things I said to her

And her to me

Love was just a word and all our promises

We never meant to keep

Or so I thought

She was a sometimes love

But sometimes, love

Hangs around a little too long
