“AS LIFE GOES ON ... (Tomorrow Is The Start Of Another Day)”
She is young and pretty, and filled with internal beauty
Her personality, that smile, those eyes ---- so full of life
I can't speak on her behalf, as she never did reveal
I should've seen what was happening, I should've known what to expect..
I could sense her entrance deep within my heart
As I am aware of what I have now come to feel
Love can be sublime, as it has left all of my senses blind
It has brought out emotions I previously couldn't detect.
I have felt things inside, which before I could only imagine
It surely was a nice feeling while the sensations lasted
The truth of the matter -- there is someone else
Who resides within her heart and in her mind.
I never felt any rejection on her part
And in her eyes I found a true and legitimate friend
Now I must once again honor and respect the choices of others
And leave my sincerest heartfelt emotions behind.
For the first time, I simply needed to express my feelings
So I took a chance, I dared to risk, I bared my soul
To a person, a genuine woman ----- that I simply needed to know
Something inside, told me "SHE" was meant as my new start.
It's all too clear, this is not the right time for a new love in my life
Only another way for me to live and learn and grow
At this point I don't need to hear ' I told you so'
Now that I'm faced with the reality of yet another broken heart.
I have reached the point of no return, and I just want to quit
I feel so overwhelmed, and it hurts as much as the time before
I can't avoid, reason or wish it away, or try to distract my attention
As I've truly enjoyed the love for a woman, that simply wasn't designed.
I believe there is a reason for her appearance
I just can't begin to explain the way that I feel
The timing wasn't right, yet my life will forever be affected.
In my heart I know there is something special about her
Some will say it's infatuation, I believe it's honest and real
For now I can only deal with my fate --- and respect it.
The walls of actuality have crumbled around me once again
This contract with life has been accepted, signed and sealed
I know dealing with my beliefs was the right thing to do
I have gained in wisdom, my life has now been defined.
Someday I'll listen, someday I'll learn
When I accept the unknown and push my fears to the side
I can risk the emotions of peace and happiness
Explore my destiny with faith and hope, from deep within my being.
Without any grand illusions, as they speak out loud and clear
By acting upon my instincts and displaying my inner feelings
Someday Love will find the open door leading to my heart
As I believe the light ahead is well worth seeing.
