Unrequited Love

A lonely voice sings the theme tune to your life

A guiding hand shifts the troubles, the obstacles and strife

A light ignites the fire of truth

A pen held that writes your story book

Unseen this stranger watches you

Dreams you dream I dreamt them too

From the sidelines your eyes see through me

And all I need is for us to be we

Patiently I watch and wait

Unrequited love my tortured fate

But should you wonder at the end of all

Yes someone else watched it all

You never woke nor fell asleep

Without my love inside you deep
