Porridge Ten Days Old

Porridge Ten days old 



You ask me to wait around 
And then you went away
I think your timing was wrong
But who am I to say

Saw picture of you 
The beauty is in your face
But you show no compassion
Think your heart’s been miss place

We both light a fire 
That was burning so bright 
Then couldn’t find the love
To make it last night 

If you go to battle for love
Knowing a heart is going to fall
Then I don’t think that love 
Is worth fighting for after all

So I wish her the best
Hope she has great life
Maybe a couple kids and
 Make someone a good wife

There’s an empty bed 
Where we both use to sleep
So many promises we make 
But not one has been keep

Last night when I sleep
I had a dream
We were sharing a bowl 
Of maple syrup ice cream 

Some times love last forever 
Some times love never reaches the soul
Some times love looks like 
Porridge Ten days old 

I try to understand love
Cause the pain never goes away
So I will sit thru my sorrow
And live to love another day

Some where in a land 
I won’t say but is in the UK
My heart will travel
And forever in love I will stay
