Old Love Gone

You think you know but you don't have a clue A love like mine is meant for you I'm willing to go all the extra miles And willing to wait to see your smiles A heart like mine, it shouldn't be wasted You'd find that out if we'd just get acquainted Hard and tough on the exterior Gentle and loving on the interior Years have gone by since true loves flourished It has a need to be carressed and nourished Gone are the days of a simple life Where life was a journey, husband and wife Today's generations are all bout possession No longer of love, faith, and compassion Measuring love in terms of money Spending more and more to keep your honey Most people don't write words anymore Worried bout facebook and sexting, just wanting to score I'm not perfect, I'm not better Hiding and hoping. Always the fretter These words I write are just for me But I've been told that they hold the key To all the secrets I keep in my chest For that one who's better than the rest We all have someone for us out there The perfect one that will choose to care
