It seems to me that love and me will never be One and the same, just hurt and pain And the promise plus the threat of never loving again Sometimes I’m even scared to start looking again But my heart doesn’t want to be lonely forever I need somebody to love, to care for To be cared about, to be loved in return All others are in heavenly bliss, when is my turn? What did I do to deserve this, years of solitude? Is sadness the whole score, or just the interlude? I’m searching for happiness, but happiness evades me Waiting for love to come and save me From the eternal misery of being alone And not having a true love that I can call my own I’m in need of love, more than anyone could ever realize To gaze across the way, captured by another’s eyes And touch anothers hands, and have them be one with me The way that I wish love would finally be.
