Dear Lover

Maybe our love would've been better 
If the circumstances were better 
If the time was better 
If we communicated better 
If the world did not matter 
If our pasts did not matter 
Had the walls of our love 
The walls of our trust 
Did not shatter 
And our love .. 
Our love was our only shelter 
Our love ooh our love dear lover would've been greater 
Greater than our fears 
Our fears to love 
Our fears to be loved 
Our fears to trust 
To give in to love 
To give in to a feeling so great 
A feeling so true 
A feeling so real
Oh but lover 
A feeling some pray to feel 
Pray to feel from a person 
Pray to feel in their hearts 
Maybe oh maybe love 
Maybe if we had given us a chance 
Another chance 
Like we gave us a chance 
At first glance 
Smiles after smiles , in a sequence 
Undying love that made my heart dance 
For this love I had no defence 
I fell , we fell , into it 
And nobody could catch us , no!
We were falling so fast 
We had no choice but to hold each others hands as we fell 
We fell every hour , every minute , every second of everyday 
Until , eventually ... 
Our love ? 
Broken into pieces
Pieces that could not be mended
Ended!
But love , could we not fight?
Or we were just without the strength 
..... from falling
