How does love start, does it ever end
Can real lovers also be friends
How can it be that I feel so alone
Like my heart has turned cold and hard as a stone

I've opened my life and showed you my soul
But why am I empty and why am I not whole
I search from inside and look in my life
I have no reason to feel like this with all of this strife

I long for the feel of your gentle warm hand
Long romantic walks with our feet in the sand
I dream of our lives and becoming one
Of dancing and laughing under the sun

But why does this feeling of sadness appear
When all I want is to have you so near
Could there be sadness lurking below
Could it be a curse and cruel wicked blow

That fate is laughing from somewhere unseen
That mocks our love and calls it obscene
I look to the heavens and look for a sign
But all just answer that everything is fine

I fear for the future and fear the unknown
But push on like a sail full of the wind blown
I follow the master, like I follow the sea
I pray that your love never dies for me
