Why

WHY………….

Why does my heart beat so slow
Is it because I have to let my baby go
I have to leave your warm embrace
Its just too much for me to face

Why does the river of tears never dry
It seems without you all I do is cry
My heart says yes my head says no
I shouldn’t have to let you go

Without you here by my side
In no a soul I can confide
I wish these feelings would subside
Or I could let them run outside

I long to feel your tender touch
I know that thought is just too much
I know that I am to blame
But that wont stop me going insane

I once was lost
But then was found
Like that weekend we spent riding around

The days by the beach we did share
they had to end that’s so unfair
Ill never forget that poor seal
I know how it felt its so unreal

Those days are gone we used to share
But in my heart there always there
I love you sweetheart don’t you see
just how much you mean to me 

You won my heart set free my soul
To love you was my only goal
I placed my life upon your hands
Its slipping away like grains of sand


As I turn and light another cigarette
Please know baby there’s no regrets
Im sorry it has come to this
But you know your love was truely bliss

Without you here I am lost
Cold and chilled like winters frost
This has come from the heart
Good luck baby in your new start

rough and ready but thats me :) H
