Alone - September 1999

Here I sit unhappily
providing my own company
thinking of the empty days
and why it had to be this way
I am confused, no one can tell
on the outside I can hide it well
the pain within is too much to face
I'm crying and my hearts embraced
Within my own love, alone
meeting true love I do postpone
I can't answer why, I do not know
I long to be loved more than you show
Love can hurt, it's a game of trust
a fragile heart will easily bust
I speak of my own, it's happened before
but I can't stand to be alone anymore
So much love to give, but still alone
nothing to do but wait for the phone
if it were to ring, what would I say
nothing, don't answer, hope it goes away
As you can see, I am quite confused
this game called love...I am not amused
I'm afraid of the pain that comes with love
it can tear you up inside because
Of the pain that you feel when it's over
not the luck of a rare four leaf clover
who could be that lucky you see?
being alone, the lucky one is me!
