Fighting For Love

Running and hiding from people everywhere Happy holidays we can no longer share Needing acceptance, given denial in return Wondering when the hell I am ever going to learn My heart is good, yet everyone sees bad Because of mistakes made by my Mom and Dad Sometimes I get so tired of fighting for love I need someone who fits me like a glove I see the bountiful garden waiting for me Where I can be whatever I am meant to be I'm scared of the dark, of being alone and afraid I'd be rich if only for crying I was paid Regrets and missed chances align my head Wondering how different it could've been said A lot of mistakes I have made, Yes I know I wonder if the pain on my face will show Apologies and what ifs don't mean a thing I feel like a broken puppet, without any string But my world keeps spinning day after day Not much more that I really need to say You came in my life when I needed you most So about you, sweet love, I will boast You truly saved me from a life of pure hell And with you, my love, my heart will dwell
