Sometimes Love Hurts
(6/8/12)
Some time love hurts to a point you want to cry
You feel as if everything in you has begun to die
You try to fill it , but it’s like shoveling sand against the tide.
I recall when I first saw you standing under the street light
My mind started jumping and my heart took flight.
I walked over to you and asked you your name
I didn’t feel guilty and felt no shame.
Life is like a traffic light - it’s a stop and go
First you move fast - then you move slow.
You had came to me with tears in your eyes
Because your loved one had said good-bye.
You never knew the feelings I had inside
It was something that I always tried to hide.
I see the pain etched in your face
There’s no shame in crying, there’s no disgrace.
But loving someone who doesn’t love you
That is something that I knew.
You are the sun that rises in my soul
Being with you all of life unfolds
You are the water that quenches my thirst
You fill up my body to a point of burst.
Sometimes love hurts ,and you feel as if your world is caving in
Just open up your mind and let me in.
I will show you what love is really about
Of that my love there is no doubt.
You see life is no good when you’re alone
And every love you ever had , you had blown
So let him learn the aches and pains that you have gone thru
this is all that you can do.
Sometimes love hurts , but it doesn’t have to
Because I am right here next to you.
