a dream of mine came true

as I lay next to you

losing my worries in the wind

 

little did I know

I had naught to show

from the heart I was eager to win

 

as I carried on

in blinded pursuit

my path lit by your auburn eyes

 

I lost myself there

in your hands and your hair

waiting for my doubts to die

 

now left here I am

to think of what was

and curse my own efforts in vain

 

and it hurts my heart still

to know that, since you

I’ve all but befriended the pain
