You can't worship a spirit in spirit, unless you do it now. Wallowing in the past may be good literature. As wisdom, it's hopeless. Time Regained is Paradise Lost, and Time Lost is Paradise Regained.

Troubles stole my paradise was our love just blind?
Look what you have done to me my love
You can still win back my heart, love can find a way
Got my love lying in your hands, oh
Still I can't explain why you went away
So, I ask again have you gonna stay
I feel just the same, love might come again
Emotion, emotion.
Dieter Bohlen
