Forever Reaching
So into myself that I cry,
For there is not enough love left for me,
Vain and in despair,
As if there is no one that cares,
Complicated though it may be,
That's just a cop out used by you and me.
All out of love and misused,
I feel my mind has been abused
For no one ever told me of the ways of a woman And all the joy and pain she could bring,
Never in my life,
Could I imagine such a thing.
All I want to know is where is my love?
Where is the woman who is meant for me?
What happened along the way,
Lost at sea with no one to rescue me.
What did I do that was so wrong,
and why has it been so long?
Tell me is it wrong to love?
Or is it just me?
Destined to walk these lonely streets
All by myself forever?
