Broken Ties

Today my heart is aching for the woman in my dreams
she's to far to touch, shes to far see
decisions of the heart it should of been
mistakes of time and ignorance
regrets of all the things that should have been

Tomorrow my heart breaks for the woman in my dreams
for a woman that has always been
her elegance and beaty that of the stars
seductive as a devil with all of her charm
her lips so moist and full of life
only a fool would think twice

Forever I cry for the woman I love
A broken proposal that mocks all time
Bare skin wear a diamond should lie 
but there it sits in a box all alone 
waiting for the day she calls it back home
before I die it will sit yet again 
On the angles hand, the woman I love

The Lonely Woman That Doesn'T Know

Out there is a woman that is lonely and depressed 
She doesn't know that she's being missed
Being missed by someone who is far far away
So far that one day he'll be to close to say
To say all the things he wished he had said
To be all the things she deserved from him
This man will come back to claim 
All of the things that one day will be
Happiness, love and respect
Is what he will give
To a woman who is sad and depressed
For she will soon learn of the love that's being kept 
Being kept by a soldier who is sad and depressed 
Only She can fix that which is broken
The love of 2 people which will never be forgotten.

Dedicated to the most beautiful woman in the world, Miss Cortez.
