Broken Dreams

( BROKEN DREAMS ) I love you more than life itself, but I`m afraid to love. My heart is like the fragile wings, of a tiny little dove. I'm scared to get too close, I feel that I can't win. You'll love me for a little while, then you'll set me free again. I've lived so long on hopes and dreams, I don't know what to do. I don't think I can trust my heart, for it belongs to you. I know you'll only hurt me, yet, I still keep running back. Between the paths of our hearts, here's a worn and beaten track. You've got my heart held on a string, it`s breaking right in two. Enough belongs to me -to hurt, the rest belongs to you. I know that somewhere in your heart, there is a place for me. I just don't know how to find it, and there's no way to make you see. I can only hope that someday you'll wake up and you'll find, That while my heart belongs to yours, yours, too, belongs to mine.
