Somehow Somewhere

Don't give me luxuries that wash away,

Then drown in falling summer rain

You promised that your heart would stay,

That I would never know this pain.

The luxury was to hear you speak,

To believe you, just because I could,

To trust you when my heart was weak,

To never question if I should.

The dream that we could be forever,

Seemed so pure, an intuition

So now, when you tell me never,

My ears hear, but my heart won't listen!

My mind knows, but my heart can't think,

Except in a twisted inspiration.

Seems there's a disrupted link

Between reality and interpretation.

So I will live by mind alone

I do know that it's over now,

And carry on even though

My heart says somewhere, somehow.
