just a little bit longer...
he'll be back
he won't leave me alone
words that comfort
lies only you believe

why do you cling
to love long lost?


memories of happiness
create your cocoon
as you shield
those who wish to help


why do you cling
to love long lost?


content to lie in his arms
you dream of many years to come
no thought in your mind
of if he were to leave you...


why do you cling
to love long lost?


disbelief cradles you
gently, decievingly in its arms
keeping despair and depression
at bay


why do you cling
to love long lost?


reality creeps in
there is rememberance
of bruises & pain
lies & deciet

why do you cling
to love long lost?
