That Moment in Time

I saw the light up in your castle window,
So I climbed the perilous tower to the top.
Up to what I took as my own;
I saved you then, but another saves you now.

Can I go back to that MOMENT IN TIME,
To that old TOLD TALE;
Back when I found you in time,
In POETRY'S PAST, where you went?
All I want is that chance again,
Chance to bring to now what has been.

That MOMENT IN TIME enchanted me;
Entranced me as though in a spell;
Like in a dance with you,
The surroundings faded as we danced.

Can I go back...
... what has been

This TOLD TALE is of a woman,
Swept away by this man;
Fighting peril and a dragon,
The creature to consume any that dare.

Can I go back...
... what has been

In POETRY'S PAST a knight ventured,
He saved and carried away;
She was saved, then past came.
She dashed POETRY'S PAST in a mist of haze.

Can I go back to that MOMENT IN TIME,
To that old TOLD TALE;
Back when I found you in time,
In POETRY'S PAST, where you went?
All I want is that chance again,
Chance to bring to now what has been.
