Two Lonely Hearts
There once was a day where lonely hearts could play
without any pain, blame or suffering
There once was a night, where the love was just so right
nothing to stop them, no one to hold them
responsible
There once was a hour where with no thoughts in mind
only the feelings of longing inside
to feel that closeness shared so true
Between the man and women subdued
fallen in without a raft
drifting further out to sea
with no protection in sight
They gave into fear of needing someone
of needing a place to be
closed up inside, their bodies were tight
and no longer, hungering
There once was a minute, where lonely hearts could lay
without any commitment, from midnight to day
enveloped indeed, these lonely hearts bleed
for something much more desiring
For this is the second, where lonely hearts think
that life could change so drastically
and everything, from that moment on
their hopes and their dreams, were so far gone
But not out of touch, and not out of reach
for this is the time, for new beginnings.
