Wind in the water

As I was walking by a beautiful fountain
A gentle breeze came
The breeze blow through the water
It was a beautiful sight
The water bent and droplets glistened
Looking like stars in the night

It was only a momentary affect
For the breeze left
The water was steady again
Something about that experience
made me look deep within

It reminded me of all of the beautiful love stories I've had in the past that didn't last
Just a beautiful momentary thing
I couldn't hold on or make them stay
Like wind in the water
They went away

Tell me is this love just wind in the water
A momentary beauty that will not last
Just like all the other lovers in the past
Is this love just wind in the water
Will the breeze eventually go away
Will the glistening droplets stop
Will the beauty fade

I hope our love will stay
Like stars in the sky
Like mountains that stand steady
If it is just a breeze
Don't let it leave yet
I'm not ready

Although
When I think about it
I wouldn't regret any of it even if it does end
I will cherish the memory of a momentary beauty

Like waves on the sad
Like a shooting star
Like a flame that is still dancing in the rain
Like the last hug from a loved one

The more temporary something is
The more beautiful it becomes
Even small things
Like wind in the water
