Long Lonely Walk

Sometimes when I read about love And I am into the page And I remember myself when I was Coming of age I don’t see any reason to not ever Give this away I see no musical instrument For me to play But I will sing alone as I wait out Everyday Seems to me I have always just Felt this way Seems like everyone I want to love Never will stay No matter how I hold on tight it keeps Getting away So I shiver inside my own cold soul Everyday As I wait the time when you come to Finally stay And it’s ok to fall in love and Drift away But it’s only a dream and I dream I drifted away And I feel inside of this dream I may stay When I think of all the times I cry and that’s every day I just sleep and dream of music someday I will play It’s such a cold and long Lonely wait But I cannot break one in two It is my fate Seems now I am always afraid If I ever think of what I owe I have already paid I only hope someone finds a way in It’s getting late Still I wait so patiently and I Opened the gate All my dreams may have to drop inside and permanently wait And walk forever on a crooked road I will never get straight

I hope so, but then sometimes I don't think I will write as good, it seems you need a broken heart to write about one, I would say I got good street creds for the blues, lol, :) and I weigh that out if I consider that I may always write, and who ever it is I fall in love with ends up staying at the end of a pen
