I proudly gaze out from the shore
At seas I have not ventured yet
Reflecting on the days of yore
And all the fates that I have met
...
While the wind whistles past the trees
It whispers your name repeating
Again, again, again in time
To the rhythm my heart is beating
...
She is as an enigma to me
And I, an enigma to her
Though honest as we are to each other
There are mysteries I'm sure
...
Empty frame on my bedside table
Tells the tale an unfortunate fable
I pray for the day that a picture is shown
But not another photo of me on my own
...
She now is nothing more to me
Than a pale and distant memory
A hazy dismal reverie
Of a forgotten failing fantasy
...
Watching my own life pass me by
Watching but not involving
Seeing the way that I am changing
Changing but not evolving
...
You're more to me than a valentine
And I hold you in my heart
My love for you will always shine
And I hope we never part
...
Feeling lonesome in a crowd full of friends
With a burnt broken heart that never mends
An era of torment that never ends
When of love and pleasure you feel deprived
...
My love has been a one way street
I never get what love I give
My pride is damaged and heart is beat
Without love it's hard to live
...
A field once filled with life and beauty
Is now a barren land
Where once had stood a castle tall
That's now been turned to sand
...
