History of a love story

One day you will die,
That day I will cry.
Windows frozen shut
Of the apartment
Where we lived our lives
Signifying some
Thing I’ll never find

No I don’t relate,
To history’s greats
Julius and Napoleon
Marie Antoinette’s not like me
Nor was Robert F. Kennedy
No I don’t relate
To history’s greats
But my love will carry on.

I could write a book
About the love it took
It would have no text
Not have statistics
It’d be full of thoughts
I can not express
They’d connect the dots

No I don’t relate,
To history’s greats
Martin Luther King and friends
Abraham was just the opposite
Everest can’t get on top of it
No I don’t relate,
To history’s greats
But my love will carry on.

Open up our lives
To page ninety-five
Second paragraph
New material
There’s a word in bold
Check the glossary
Says it won’t grow old

No I don’t relate,
To history’s greats
Cept maybe one no one knows
Being unknown isn’t too bad
Fame wrecks people, love won’t do that
No I don’t relate,
To history’s greats
But my love will carry on.
