Bitter Tears

Bitter tears There is no one to hold me While I am crying in the night Lies and empty promises Have clearly come in sight I knew I should have stayed alone It was safer there by far The one I trusted with my soul Was just a fallen star So my life is over And Never again shall I love I pray to God with all my heart I need help from up above Please take my pain away And please don’t let me hate I gave him all the love I had Now unhappiness my fate He said some awful things to me And I threw some “awful” too But now we each have bitter tears These words I speak so true So I shall lay our love to rest My most precious possession And I will cry these bitter tears The only sign of this confession Time of course will heal us Each separate and alone But I will share with you this bitter fact… It has turned my heart to stone.
