Too Old For Love
Experience has taught
Lessons been learned
Turned off that part
That bad love had burned
A strange attraction
And unexpected call
A spark of affection
Won't make me fall
It hurts too much
Love is too cruel
My soul is just kindling
And hope is the fuel
Not good enough!
Never to win!
Wasting my time
All over again
Run away, run away
As fast as I can
Pain dead ahead
Not part of my plan
Forever alone
Safe from all harm
Resisting the spell
Cast by your charm
Stop dreaming you fool
Illusions must cease
Alone is better
Solitude's peace
