Alone
There's a house full of laughter - the family I love
The views in the distance and tall trees above
I hear music and movement - the bounce of a ball
The splashing and gurgle from the pool water fall
Worked hard hours and long - its all been worthwhile
To spend time with family - just seeing them smile
Relaxing and close to the ones I adore
So complete and content - I could ask for no more
But these are just memories that come and dont last
As I desperately strive to re-enter this past
To a time I recall that was so full of bliss
To a time I prefer thats much better than this
To once more be with them and feel all aglow
To tell them I love them - I'd never let go
To be rid of this empty, that tears at my heart
Just to be back together and not have to part
But starkest reality - puts thoughts to flight
Sweet daytime reflections are banished to night
And fate has no mercy as history has shown
Now I know what its like to be here all alone
