Broken Dreams

What I’d do to see your face What I’d sacrifice to feel your taste Where I’d go on our little adventure What I’d do to hear your purr How I’d know your right there To defeat and conquer all of my fear I’d hear your voice everyday in my head And carefully listen to all the lyrics you said See your seducing eyes looking back at me I’d watch you grow and just be free Feel your touch every time we sleep For you to be there and comfort me when I weep But now I see that probably is not going to happen now How did it exactly come to this, just how? But sitting and dreaming about what could have been Watching how our world slowly becomes dim Broken dreams escape my body and mind I can’t believe how that I could have been so blind Now you have moved on and what can I say? I sit next to the phone and watch life become darkened day It’s not your fault---I’m sure it’s mine I knew this would eventually happen, it just took time I will act like we didn’t even ever exist But never look again for that type of happiness Just for now I hurt so much I started to drink again and became a lush From the thunder in your songs, your heart has always been with someone As I look further ahead, deep beyond the rising sun I care for you and I always will But my love for you, your shady thunder did kill
