Songs: Longing

by Melinda Barr

Created on: February 04, 2009   Last Updated: February 24, 2009

Your love was without limits,

you said it from the start

But years went by and love it fades,

there's no longer joy in your heart.




So you didn't speak the truth that day,

wrapped in your pain and deceit.

Saying goodbye to my one true love,

my tear drops weren't so sweet.




Chorus:

Lies and tears and days gone by,

have left me a world of pain.

My dreams have died and gone away,

like the splatters from the rain.




Winter frost turns earth to steel,

like it did within your heart.

And though I pray for happiness,

still we remain apart




How I long for days gone by,

to return and set me free.

All night long from dusk to dawn,

With no love to comfort me
