Longing

One dream traded for another
One more plan has failed
One love replaced by no other
One more ship has sailed

Sometimes we try to see the light
But the darkness overcomes
Sometimes we open up our eyes
To a world that never learns

They say love makes the world go round
But it's turned my world upside down
This longing that I have is too much to stand
And time is never on my side
It makes me want to run and hide
To a place where I can be my own man

One life crushed by broken dreams
Only one survives the fall
One hope comes apart at the seams
Only one can see through it all

Sometimes alone we face our fears
But we always get burned
Sometimes we've cried all our tears
When will we ever learn

They say love makes the world go round
But it's turned my world upside down
This longing that I have is too much to stand
And time is never on my side
It makes me want to run and hide
To a place where I can be my own man
