Gone Away Lighting crashes across the sky, I sit in my den and remember the brisk autumn nights we have shared. A log burns in the fireplace just like the brandy I sit and taste. You went away to find yourself. What did you go looking for did you not know who you really are. I wonder if on your journey you will forget about me. I know are love was pure but that’s no guarantee. Maybe you will decide you want to be free. I know being with me isn’t at times all that easy, but being free can get lonely. I wonder while you are miles away from me if you are dreaming of me. I think of you continuously and sleep eludes me. You’ve been gone so long I am starting to wonder if you are ever going to come back to me. I’m scared that the love I gave wasn’t enough to make you happy. While you’ve been gone I’ve searched deep inside my heart and realized how much you mean to me. I love you so much you can’t even begin to conceive how you have affected me. Baby please come back I need you more then the air I breathe. |
The Tear of Anger A tear comes to your eye as you turn and walk away. I don’t even call out and ask you to stay. My heart was tuned to the love we had now with four little words you turned it to stone. I wonder did you ever really love me or was I just playing the fool for you. You walked into my life so lonely and I gave you everything you wanted from a lover but now you say you’ve found another. I sit and look through our photos I wonder now if your smiles were all just fakes. Days go by and I am lost in my own thoughts as the sandman begs me to rest I progress into a sadder place one filled with questions and hate. I cry myself to sleep but I am haunted by nightmares of the day you left me. Warm summer nights that use to be our playground for love are now as cold and lonely as a crypt. Fall is setting in now and all the flowers that are in our garden are withering away just like the love I felt for you. Loves wicked flame has burnt me, but in time I know I will fall for another. Did you really think I would love you forever. I know how to play the game so what I had to have a little time to gain my heart back. Now I am ready to find another lover, one that won’t make me suffer. |
