Alone
Alone, Alone now how could this be?
A home, a husband and kids I have three.
With a heart full of love I can't seem to fit in.
Tears fill my eyes. Alone once again.
To beg someone to love just isn't my way.
"Only when you deserve it" I hear your voice say.
To be so alone should be such a sin.
Slowly to realize I lose in the end.
So much love that will never be known.
My heart so soft has now turned to stone.
The pain in my heart no other will feel.
Means nothing to others, to me far too real.
Forgetting the love I once held so strong.
Struggling to find out just where I belong.
To open my heart and let someone in would
be so stupid. My heart would never mend.
To lose something precious so loving and true
Something so beautiful, that something was you.
The one thing I've worked hard for, for so long
to fix this myself? I'm not sure I'm that strong.
Do this and do that, is that all I'm worth?
"Well will you"? and "could you"? Well yes
but of course. To feel so alone, Who have I
become? No one you know. Just someone so
numb.
A smile on my face could mean only one thing.
Just look at my kids, what joy they bring.
Moments of ups and downs, One minute a laugh
the next one a frown.
The story of my life, what more to expect.
Might as well just face it, That's life, What the heck.
To be forgotten as someone you once used to know.
To remember, Just look in your heart. I'm here down
below.
