Broken

In all my life I've never felt
This love for you, my body melts
I see your eyes, they are so deep
This love for you, I'll always keep
I feel myself inside your arms
This love for you, so safe from harm
I dream one day this will be true
This love for you, felt by few
I watch the way your body moves
This love for you, is deep and true
I catch your gaze a mile away
This love for you, is here to stay
And then I wake and find you gone
I dream of you, where you belong
I think of all the times we shared
I dream of you, and you're not there
To hold you in a warm embrace
I dream of you, it falls in place
I only dream and reminisce
I long for you, just one true kiss
My broken heart still clings to hope
I long for you, it's hard to cope
I'd do it all for you again
I long for you, I'll never win
I'd keep you safe for all your life
I long for you, and not this strife
You'll never know the way I feel
This love gone wrong, I need to heal
Distant love is never kind
This love gone wrong, still in my mind
I felt so close, but long ago
This love gone wrong, has got to go
I'll shed a tear as I try to leave
This love gone wrong, so hard to believe
I walk away and watch the door
This love gone wrong, not mine anymore...
