Love Can Never Be Redeemed
Before the roses withered cancer took her in vain,
after the petals w i l t e d her scent never gone-
For only one thing in his heart could ever remain,
the way she used to sing that special love song,
for he had known it had always been her all along.
When you fall in love you awake to a new dream,
and in loving her he could never go wrong-
When your beloved dies, LOVE CAN NEVER BE REDEEMED.
When they first met he thought he would go insane,
Her eyes so big and brown with amber hair so long-
For passion and romance in his heart were engrained,
And t o g e t h e r in such harmony they both did belong,
For a marriage proposal, he could not prolong.
They bore a child and life became quite extreme,
before they knew it that little girl already foregone-
When your beloved dies, LOVE CAN NEVER BE REDEEMED.
At her grave he lingers hoping closure he’ll gain,
But his head is telling him to try to be headstrong-
For on his broken heart a crimson blood stain,
And the d i s t a n c e seems to be forever farlongue.
Wishing someone to pierce his heart with a prong.
Through all the heartache they made the perfect team,
Oh, once more if only he could hear that ol’ love song-
When your beloved dies, LOVE CAN NEVER BE REDEEMED.
After the petals w i l t e d her scent never gone,
he shall never forget his beautiful wife Doreen-
For he had known it had always been her all along,
when your beloved dies, LOVE CAN NEVER BE REDEEMED.
