Park

Walking after dark Through an abandoned park Where lovers once walked hand in hand Dancing to their favorite band Passing a lonely merry-go-round There is no childrens laughter found Loves no longer bound Hearts changing Rearranging What used to be You can no longer see Eyes growing older Life grows colder Thinking on what once was there Someone once used to care Brings a tear Brings back the fear Times changed My times Rearranged Here I am walking after dark Through this abandoned park. Trying to recapture something I lost Lonely heart pays the cost The day's keep passing me by Teardrops I no longer cry Don't know why As the moon passes by Days come and go Seems to move too slow As I step into tomorrow I have nothing left to show Just on I go It is all I know
