Broken Down Heart
I was never out to get your silver or your gold..
All I wanted with you, was "to have and to hold."
Love is not callous, but, tender, gentle and kind..
You didn't want to listen or heed the warning signs.
Our Love was only meant, between the confines of us..
Not shared with others, and the world's idea of lust.
Time and again, I cried out, and now here we are..
In the end, it only left me with a broken down heart.
