c2. Miscellaneous Quatrains
c3. I
Our time apart spans an eternity
Thoughts abound with hopeless uncertainty
Someday I will find the courage to call
Just have to undo this runic wall.
c3. II
You all started so long ago
Had plans to bring me down
Life is long and love was gone
Your words were just for show.
c3. III
Don't speak to me of dreams
I've been through it all before
I know what it means
I don't want to hear it anymore.
c3. IV
Sometimes love comes and goes
I wonder why does life have to be so cruel
But everyoen wonders, no-one knows
Why someone has to lose.
c3. V
There comes a time when it's way too late to turn around
A love that has already run aground
Then there is no use pretending, for a sky is descending
Full of desperation, it's only love.
c3. VI
It's way too late to turn and go back
The past fades fast
The flame will slowly die
But the memories will always last.
c3. VII
Sometimes it seems I just guess too much
When my scope and thought are so far out of touch
Now you have me thinking of a new sensation
Insight to a new imagination.
c3. VIII
Babe, things are looking down for us right now
But, we can turn it all around some day.
Everything is just as it seems
And if it is all true, the next play is up to you.
c3. IX
You act is if you just don't care
But, I don't believe that lie.
For the time we spent apart,
Wandering aimlessly into a broken heart.
c3. X
There's a little bit of lovin' in the air
Truth or fiction, it's a new strength of conviction.
I touched your hand and I was there.
Just give me a sign that your tomorrow is mine.
