For the One I Love "carolyn"
As I traveled through the years
There were many long, sometimes difficult days that were my Life.
I had grown tired, and as I became weary I had realized
My life seemed empty, but was often full of strife
As time passed I had failed to realize I had become lost
Passing through life fruitlessly, pressing on without much care
I had run long and I had run hard, all alone
There was no one in my life with which to share
No one to see, No one to hear
Looking to my side, I found no one standing there
Left only with my loneliness
Only my empty soul in which to stare
Then in the distance a voice I heard
A sweet and wonderful sound
Some one who just like me
Was lost hoping to be found
You were funny, you were beautiful
And to me you were so very kind
Because of your laughter and your sweetness
The joy you brought me was always on my mind
No longer do I seek to run
I have no desire or passion to flee
Now the person I need most
The only one I love is Carolyn, standing next to me
