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
