Of Heart and Mind

The heart longs for what it knows it can\'t have,
Whilst the mind puts a plan into motion,
To avert the heart from the hurt and the pain,
And prevent any further destruction.

To love and be loved is a funny old affair,
Full of ups and downs and merry go rounds,
To love and be loved,
To lose and have lost,
It all has to come to an end.

To lose love from your heart can tear you apart,
For the heart feels the greatest of pain,
Not like a dagger in your side nor the tears you have cried,
But a world with no sun or rain.

Your world becomes bleak; your days are a blur,
No matter where you run you can\'t hide,
For the hurt in your heart can\'t be ignored nor fixed,
So you stick it out; go along for the ride.

To love and be loved is a funny old affair,
Full of ups and downs and merry go rounds,
To love and be loved,
To lose and have lost,
It all has to come to an end.

Time can\'t heal nor disguise the pain that you feel,
Though your mind is the greatest of all,
It shows clarity, peace, serenity and hope,
It picks you up when you stumble and fall.

It shines a light through the darkness when you need it the most,
It lets you know what you feel isn\'t real,
Your eyes were blinded by the fear of being alone,
Let your mind and your heart strike a deal.

To love and be loved is a funny old affair,
Full of ups and downs and merry go rounds,
To love and be loved,
To lose and have lost,
It all has to come to an end.

Step out from the darkness, soak up the light,
Just breathe, relax and rewind,
Get out and explore, see the wonders that may,
Let your mind be your saviour and guide.

Your heart can\'t be fixed, mended or snubbed,
For in fact it was never broken,
You were blinded by all of the hurt and the pain,
Reality was forever unspoken.

To love and be loved is a funny old affair,
Full of ups and downs and merry go rounds,
To love and be loved,
To lose and have lost,
It all has to come to an end.

Be happy not content, live life to the full,
Love is but a stepping stone,
To the finer things that life has to offer,
With your mind, you are never alone.
With your mind, you are never alone.
