When a Heart Truly Believes

Where is my love

Where could she be

Somewhere out there my poor heart seeks

On some lonely street as I pass by a crowd

I thought I might have heard her speak


Is it you I need to know

Telling eyes would surely show

A voice behind your smile

Would lift my heart up to the sky

But a chill comes over me

When you kissed the man I'll never be

Now my back's against a wall 

Alone wondering who should I call


Where is my love

Where could she be  

Somewhere out there my aching heart seeks

I look to a star

Wherever you are

I hope this message gets to you

I stand here waiting

Anticipating...  

I'll be searching every place to find

My true love till the end of time

In sorrow for love that left you behind. And you in haste forgetting love is blind. But then we’d never have such wonderful, soulful poetry.
