Reasons Why

My tears have gone in search of you. Like a lemming racing to the sea. This heart of mine won't let me be. I died when you said we were through. Circumstance ravaged my soul. Love has left me wracked with fear. Still,I wish that you were here. Empty nights taking their toll. You thought my faithfulness was lacking. But not once did I do you wrong. Wished you with me the night long. Never dreamed you'd send me packing. Now you can't wait to say good-bye. Darling I did not desert you. And I never meant to hurt you. Don't you know the reasons why?
