“In This Simple Song.”

Gone are many of my memories . . .
I filled in many blanks with my words . . .
Looking around for my true love . . .
Where can she be?
Sadly, she’s eluded me.
Can you hear my words?
Can you hear my words . . .
Within this simple song?
In this simple song.

Gone are many of my friends . . .
Changes to my life I’ve made . . .
I look around, realizing that I’m still unhappy . . .
My dream has me!
It’s sadly eluding me.
Can you see into my eyes?
Can you read into my words . . .
Within this simple song . . .
In this simple song?

Gone are many of my years . . .
I’ve filled in my hollow life with benevolence . . .
Thankfully, I’ve realized who it is that I love . . .
But she keeps turning . . .
Into other men’s arms.
Can you feel my pain?
Can you see my tears . . .
Within this simple song?
In this simple song.

She came upon me within dreams, promising me the world.
I had to leave behind my pain, my memories of sadness.
I prayed that she would come for me, but, sadly, it’s just a fantasy . . .  a fantasy.
