Why is forever so forever?
Why is love forever never?
Hearts? Why broken ever?
The light you gave to chase the night and shadows from my sight
Is gone, snuffed out, no longer bright and darkness steals in tonight.
My heart no longer beats in steady rhyme or paced syncopated time
With yours. Have we perverted our love, made of it a heinous crime?
Simon and Garfunkel may sing of parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme,
But songs of love gone wrong are unwanted, no reason and no rhyme.
I want you back, I need you back. I love you so with all my might.
Come drive shadows and the night from about me, hold me tight.
Draw my shattered pieces together with your love, make me right.
