Phyllis Babcock Poet Lyric

Broken Dreams

The games you always play
while in my bed you lay
I weaken at your touch
Sometimes it just gets to much


I thought I found someone new
I thought I found some one who
Had it all... had it all
But my dreams fell apart... fell apart
It fell apart along with my heart.

I wonder how we survived
 the regrets and past mistakes
Couldn't help myself over you
as you played with my heart

I thought I found someone new
I thought I found someone who
Had it all...had it all
But my dreams fell apart... fell apart
It fell apart along with my heart.

We laughed and we cried
Slowly a part of us had died
We slowly drifted away
As we said our goodbye.
