the grass isn't always greener

So simple are these words that i claim yet they drive so many people insane Like the fools we are for love and hate we lust after the romantic words we anticipate They sound so sweet to our hearts it's true but the hardest part is finally making do With the empty promises we made while in sync with our hopeless apsirations and far fetched dreams We dive head first into mirky waters all the time then have the nerve to wonder why we're about to lose our minds Love is not a game yet we treat it as such we get empty hands when we expected a royal flush Be careful of the cards you choose for love is a game you're more than likely to lose It will twist up the passions in your soul it will strip you down to your bare bones Leaving you helpless and so meek your body feeling raw and your heart beating so weak And then when the hardships begin to show you find that your love comes and it goes Up and down, from left to right your emotions are there and then they're out of sight When you finally decide to leave love alone a new spring wind is gently blown Yearning to fufill our hopes, we reach for the wind it's not a surprise that we capture nothing again It's amazing that love is only tangible to the heart which is why when we're in love, our reality is torn apart So simple are these words that i preach yet love is the hardest lesson to teach
