I Didn'T Answer Your Need
I didn't answer your need,
and it showed many times in your pretty
pretty look of feminine sweetness;
it could have been the only
time to start loving by closing the eyes
and dream of a magical world!
I wondered about
your loss of interest in me,
all that attracted you to me;
I worried about
a tomorrow without holding you close
as another shining sunrise rose!
I didn't answer your need
and find perfect words
to express my feelings...
hoping in your understanding
that always was so thrilling;
where will the future lead?
Dreaming is different from reality,
one must separate the two wisely,
and compare them with clarity;
there's a realm made of dreams,
there's also a realm made of human tears
and this one belongs to the hopeless ones!
I didn't answer your need,
and putting out the flame of hope
I betrayed your trust and told you to cope
with a life without me and my tenderness;
making you feel empty and worthless...
ah, I was a victim of greed!
