Lin Lane Poet Lyric

My Heart May Never Mend

Sung to the tune ~ Candle in the Water from Pete's Dragon


You'll never know how much I love you
You've never thought of me that way
I can't go on concealing
What my heart is feeling
Emotions I have longed to convey

You'll never know how much I love you
Or that I dream of you each night
With your arms closed around me
Finally, you found me
Where the stars are always shining bright

And then the morning light surrounds me  
I reach for you and find that you're not here 
I'll wish that one day you will love me 
Ever just a friend 
My heart may never mend

You'll never know how much I love you
I can't admit how much I care 
I'm hoping soon, by some chance
we will share a romance 

In dreams I never feel despair  
As stars shine like a flare   
I'll always find you there
I'll always find you there
I'll always find you there

Natasha L Scragg January 1, 2022 at 1:52 PM A beautiful, moving and emotional song Lin. Your lyrics perfectly match your chosen tune. Candle on the water is a song about love, loss and hope and your words tie in well with this feeling. Thank you for sharing your song and for entering the contest. Congrats on your placement. :-D Lin Lane January 1, 2022 at 4:17 PM Thank you so much for placing my lyrics on your winning list, Natasha. I enjoyed writing for your contest.

Bill Baker December 16, 2021 at 10:17 PM I can relate, Lin. So many times when I was young. 18 schools in 12 years. Had to leave so much love, much of it one sided. It's sometime hard to believe I could love again and again. I'm so thankful for the gift of Love that has blessed me. Thank for sharing your heartfelt poetry with us, Your friend, Bill Lin Lane January 1, 2022 at 4:16 PM Our hearts rely on loving and being loved. Thank you, Bill.

Tom Cunningham December 16, 2021 at 10:11 AM Such a disappointment when the one you have feelings for doesn't share the same views. Good luck in the contest Lin, hope your day is going well. Tom Lin Lane December 16, 2021 at 1:25 PM I've felt such pain when I was younger. Thanks for always being so supportive, Tom.

L Milton Hankins December 16, 2021 at 9:39 AM O wow! I really like this, Lin. I have known these feelings in my life, so I could relate. It is so sad when we are deeply in love with someone and it is not returned, or it is returned only with friendship. Then, I think, we have to be happy with what we feel alone. Lin Lane December 16, 2021 at 9:50 AM We have no choice other than to remain friends, as difficult as it may be. There's such heartache in an unrequited love...Thank you so much, Milt.
