Love That Mends a Lonely Heart

Sitting here reminiscing  
About what my life is truly missing 
The passion and warmth you feel from kissing
I see myself needing to be bolder
Or my nights will continue to get colder
I need some love that appears to be stuck on hold
The whole thing leaves me feeling like I don't fit the mold

Treating them all with a heart of gold
Why have so many of them sold their souls
Don't they see I got game that rolls
With one goal to love not control
So many of them put on such a good show
Thinking it's not possible for you to know

Like being online makes you blind
So many of them using the same mo
Their intentions known from the word go
Sharing their hard luck life
cutting through your trust like a double-edged knife

Shame on them for taking advantage of my lust
Not knowing that it all leads to one big bust
When they lie to gain my trust
They leave me no choice but to look at them with disgust
What must I do to find a love that is true

One that exists just between me and you
A love that grew together from the very start
One based on a truth that won't keep us apart
The kind love that mends a lonely heart
From the one who calls you sweetheart
