Endless
Our eyes can’t hide
What a smile tries to cover inside
We drop to our knees to beg
On our knees we fall to wed
When you lose someone
Your half is gone, a burden comes worth a tonne
In the face of other love birds
Comes that sharp ruthless heart ache
You see the future you dreamt of
Pass by you on the sidewalk
Freeing a bird and letting it fly
Is painful but sometimes right
You think of your efforts and tries
But the bird’s chatters have turned out to be cries
It’s like a wind blew away the heart’s lace
Leaving it naked, cold and worthless
But what dwells in me is endless
Like the stretch of the Sahara ahead of you
Like a vast and wide sea of blue
Like the only time you can ever let go
It’s at the last tick of the clock
My memories are a fortress
For a love that is endless
