A Broken Dream

Love is pretty much a mess.

A Broken Dream

I love you more than life itself,

But I'm afraid to love.

My heart is like the fragile wings,

Of a tiny little dove.

 

I'm scared to get too close,

I feel that I can't win.

You'll love me for a little while,

Then set me free again.

 

I've lived so long on hopes and dreams,

I don't know what to do.

I don't think I can trust my heart,

Because it belongs to you.

 

I know you'll only hurt me,

Yet I still keep running back.

Between the paths of our hearts,

There's a worn and beaten track.

 

You've got my heart held on a string,

It's breaking right in two.

Enough belongs to me - to hurt,

The rest belongs to you.

 

I know that somewhere in your heart,

There is a place for me.

I just don't know how to find it,

And there's no way to make you see.
