Lonely Reflections

The brothers may have said it best You've lost that lovin feelin But I've managed to convince myself My own righteousness is why I stay Every effort I make Every swing I take Misses the mark And comes up empty It still haunts me now and then Some nights far more than others Opportunities foresaken Yesterday's regrets last to today I know I'm far from perfect And I've never claimed otherwise But with my persistent imperfection Seems that I fall short in your eyes Your heart gives so much For your friends and family But I'm always left to question How much is left for me?
