Forgotten Dreams And Paradise Lost

by Jack Daniels - Virgo

The distance between us
Is growing every night
I knew I lost your trust
When you held me tight

Deep down I knew you loved me
Now you've been taken away
Now you really can be free
Yet I still pray

For you to come back
For you to live again
You're only a memory
but it's all that keeps me sane

I wonder the green fields
Memories of fun filled days
And lust filled nights
I can see you through the haze

Forgotten dreams and paradise lost
Only playing the game
No matter the cost
It will never be the same

Something hidden stirs tonight
Frozen tears trace icy paths down my face
It lurks within the shadows out of sight
The moon's lost in this forsakken place

And all that's left
Are-

Forgotten dreams and paradise lost
I was playing the game
At no matter the cost
It could never be the same.
