Darkness surrounds me as I wander lost
In the murkiness of lonliness of this world.
The light that once was my guide,
I seem to have lost,
And I have found myself in a place
That is worse than the flames of hell.
I see you everyday and I look into those eyes
The ones that let me see your soul
Where I have gone, there seems there is no return.
I long to hold you in my arms
And wrap you in the place
You once called safe.
I yearn to whisper in your ears
And feel your lips against mine.
I see you as I wander lost in the place.
I must find a way, I can't see you every day
And not have you with me.
Is this my hell? Have I been so wrong?
To have my love ignored, to have me go unnoticed.
A place where I have gone,
I look into the light, but it burns my eyes,
I have been cursed with knowing one so true
Knowing one who I would love forever,
And not being able to have you.
Where I have gone, I must find a way out.
I love, and you don't even know.
