SOLEMN DESPAIR

by J Avery Johnson   Mar 3, 2007


SOLEMN DESPAIR FOUND ME ...AND TO WHAT DO I OWE THE PLEASURE

THE ONE I GAVE MY HEART TO, MY HEARTS UNBURIED TREASURE.

ALL MY LIFE, I'VE SEARCHED NOT TO FIND

SOLEMN DESPAIR FOUND ME, ALONE AND CRYING.

CRYING OUT TO LOVES UNGIVEN GRACE

FORSAKEN AND WITHOUT CONTROL... FEEL THE TEARS ROLL DOWN MY FACE.

SOLEMN DESPAIR FOUND ME ...AND I SING SONGS IN IT'S PRAISE

TOMMOROW CAME TO SOON FOR, I'M ENJOYING THESE DYING DAYS.

HELLBENT ON SALVATION... I CHERISH THE LOVE WE SHARE.

SOLEMN DESPAIR FOUND ME ...STILL CRYING TO MYSELF.

NIGHTS GO BY AND DAYS FLY PAST

MY LIFE, MY LOVE... NOT EVERYTHING LAST.......

SOLEMN DESPAIR FOUND ME ...AND TO WHAT DO I OWE THE PLEASURE.

THE ONE I GAVE MY HEART TO, ONLY NOT TO BE TREASURED.
