Yearning For You

If I know what you want I would give it to you How about the moon A bandit I will become Disguised as the wind I will quickly steal it from the sky And hand it to you I don’t know what you want I haven’t a single clue. My heart you already have Maybe I gave it too soon Because all you did was take it And break it in two I tried to sew it together But the cut was made too deep Every time I think of you Throbbing pain burst open The wound I try to conceal If you pour your love upon it It will begin to heal But all I can do for now Is keep yearning for you I close my eyes, I see you You star in all my dreams I will wave my magic wand Puff! Darn, you are still there A handsome tattoo etched on my mind What can I do next? To make you disappear To erase you from my life I see you everywhere The tears my eyes are shedding Is nothing compared to the river My waning heart is raining My weeping heart is stained With excruciating pain If I was physically harmed The doctor could patch me up The yearn I feel for you Few will understand How did you reach in So incredible deep Each heart should come with a sign “Fragile, easy to break Handle with care!” That could have saved me Nights of sleepless tears But for now I must suffer Yearning for you
