Somewhere Somehow

I remember the night so clearly.

Where we were, what we did, what we said.

That night I was made captive by your eyes.

Adrift in a hazel sea, I let myself go, my heart led the way.

I fell in love, deeply in love.  But you don’t love me.

I guess we’re alone, this love and I.

You’re the center of my world, my reason for being.

I love you like I’ve never loved before.

I want to smile with you and laugh with you.  

I live for you, and I would die for you. 

But you don’t love me.  You won’t love me. 

We’re all alone, this love and I. 

Somewhere.  Somehow.

Someday someone will love me the way I love you. 

Until then I'll hold my heart in my hands,

And try to keep it warm.

This tender love of mine.

I gave you my heart. You said, “I must be going.”

I can’t find words to express how that feels. 

Just something you have to feel for yourself.

I tried to show you, tried to help you find a way out of yourself. 

But your door was shut, bolted and barred inside.

I felt the warmth of your heart and your need to be loved.

I gave myself, gave you everything I had.

But you didn’t love me.  You couldn’t love me.

So we’re alone, this love and I.

Somewhere.  Somehow.

Someday someone will love you if you're willing to let them.

Willing to let them into your heart. 

You’ll hold out your heart and give it to another,

The way I gave you mine.

And when you do, don't hold back, give with everything you've got.

I don't have the words to tell you how that feels. 

Just something you have to feel for yourself.
