Tears of the Past

A hundred sun's
A thousand tears
10 000 of hope
100,000 loves have passed me by

A hundred times I've sang a song
Of sadness, sorrow and regret
For the loves of mine 
I've never kept

For a thousand miles 
And across the seas of time
I've long since traveled to the end of life
And rhyme

So when will i be free
To have my love i dream
When will my tears stop their falling.

I've sang the song of chaos long
And hoped that one day that may change
But my lot in life has never been my choice

I've long since been in this world 
Where all things don't make sense 
The strongest house is made up strong
But the slightest breeze it falls

A house is only strong
When we work as one
The demons voice has oft seduced 
My wayward heart with dreams of fantasy


Where is my path gone? 
Where will I end up
My path it branches in many ways 
Will I ever find my place?
 Will I ever be free to love 
with one who loves divine.
