Most men have a life's dream and so too did Jim
But the dream that he had did not come true for him
He hoped that Melinda the one he loved him would wed
But he never even once did take her to bed
It is true what we cannot have in life we do miss
From Melinda he never even stole a kiss
When he asked her to marry him she laughed in his face
Saying between you and i Jim marriage will never take place
When he realized the favours of Melinda would be in vain to pursue
He eventually married his second choice Sue
With her nowadays he only shares their children and grandchildren in common and little else more
She has remarried and he remains single in his life of years three score
He still loves Melinda after all of those years
And at memories of her his eyes moisten with tears
Though he has not seen her for years and she lives far away
As an ageing grandmother in the U S of A
The only woman he loved his marriage proposal turned down
The saddest day ever for him in the town
Jim is ageing without a woman today
It can be said sometimes life works in this way.
