Tennis Love

Two hearts meet in the sunlight
Once every week
On the court where dreams ignite
No need to speak

Rackets in hand, they smile
Love in the air
Playing close for just a while
Without a care

Tennis love in disguise
Under the skies
Time stands still when they play
Wishing for one more day

Sneaking glances 'cross the net
Love's secret spark
Every volley, no regrets
Their love's a mark

Dreaming of the weekend's light
Their time alone
In those moments, hearts take flight
Their love has grown

After school, the courts await
Their special place
Moments that they celebrate
In each embrace

Whispered secrets on the side
Love's gentle touch
In each other, they confide
Their love is such

Game, set, match, it's our time
Underneath the sunny skies
Hearts entwined, our love's prime
We’ll break the ties that bind

Two hearts meet on the line
Rarely able to touch
Thinking thoughts so fine
The pain just feels too much

Rackets in hand, they smile
Love in the air
Playing close for just a while
Without a care
