Lost In the World of Lonely

Sitting here in the darkness With an old memory swimming in my head I'm lost in the world of lonely I miss you being here in my bed Yesterdays dream has shattered It's impossible to hold onto you I'm lost in the world of lonely I can't get you out of my head Lost in the world of lonely, lost in the world of lonely It's more than this used heart can take Loving you was my best decision In the end my biggest mistake You smiled and my world brightened My special angel who eclipsed the sun I'm lost in the world of lonely Where have you gone my special one I miss you being here in my bed The essence of you still swims in my heart I'm trapped in the world of lonely Wanting you tears me apart Lost in the world of lonely, lost in the world of lonely It's more than this used heart can take Loving you was my best decision In the end my biggest mistake When you promised me forever I didn't make any other plans That's why I am here and lonely I am just a one woman man Not a real story I wrote this for Anne's Lyric contest.

When you promised me forever, I didn't make any other plans. Richard, Richard, Richard...how did you come up with such a FANTASTIC song? Lyric writing is never easy...this this is beyond superb. I'm not gushing. I mean it. Straight to my favs. I've been ill. Short hospital stint. Wasn't up to commenting, though I did read. Take care....

Sorry to hear you were not well, hope you have recovered fully. Your comment here makes my day. I wasn't sure I was on the right track because not many people commented on this one.
