Broken

Wind blows today to the past
Time goes on by way to fast
Trying to find a love that will last

Put my heart on the line
Don't think I can do it one more time

Why must I subject myself to the pain
I just keep getting left out in the rain

Can't fix how her heart feels
Guess I'm stuck in the mud spinning wheels

They say time heals a broken heart
But what can you do
If your heart just won't part

Made a commitment for life
Now I'm looking at a woman who doesn't resemble my wife

Time can change a persons face
But memories it can't erase

How I wish we could go back
Back to the days when our love was raw and pure
Spending the rest of our days together was for sure

Now we have grown apart
I keep holding on for a new start

I'm left in the mist of the storm
Trying to mend a broken heart that's been torn
