Longing
Love made me high
Then when it did die
Made me cry
Thought love was there to stay
But it is just a game people play
Promises made to be broken
Are words of love spoken
Till love is awoken
Hearts desire
Loves fire
A soft gentle touch
Not asking for much
A hand to hold and such
Lost but looking
No love for the booking
A star in the eye
A tear that you cry
Empty arms longing to hold
Words of love never gets told
Souls grow old
Longing for something new
Someone true
But you find there is no one for you
Words I long to hear
I fear
Are lost to the past
So the lonely does last
The older I grow
The age starts to show
I know
Love will never be mine
That light won't shine
I hold my heart tight
Love I fight
Love I will never gain
Love is a stain
Why is this something I want
Just another dream that will come back to haunt
So here I go
Alone is all I know
All I have to show
Is broken hearts never mend
Loves fires always end
The end of belief
The start of grief
Pain
Rain
Gives your heart a life long stain
Love makes you sad
And that's just to bad
I shed a tear
Cause no one is near
Love I fear
Will never be
That's what I see
