Lonely

I walked a lonely path, with no one by my side, Walking through puddles of tears that I have cried. I try to move forward, but I am stuck in the past, All by myself, and wishing love would last. They say nothing is forever, but time marches on, So I count my blessings with every waking dawn. I have lost friends and lovers, I have lost alot in my life, I pray to find happiness, each and ever night. Should I keep going, should I stay focused, Hard to keep moving, when everything seems hopeless. I try to get some years back, I try to understand, I try to be perfect, but I am just a man. I try to keep my head up, but it is hard to stand, I try to do my best, I do what I can. It is hard to stay happy, depression setting in, My past is my problem, future getting grim. I will wake up tomorrow to another lonely day, I would be happy where I am, if I could only stay.
