Alone on a Summer's Day

Alone on a summer’s day
Sitting on the ocean’s shore
wish I would just drift away
Since you closed your heart’s door

I sit and watch the crashing waves
And the sand be beaten down
From the pain I have endured
I feel like I want to drown

Only you could do this to me
Make my world a metaphor
Sad as the hopelessness of sea
Never knowing what’s in store

The sea though beautiful it is
Reminds me only of you
Because no one really knows
What lies beneath the blue

What thoughts went through your mind
Causing you to up and leave?
What emotions crossed love’s path
Causing you to make me grieve?

Did I ever do you wrong?
Did I ever cause you pain?
Did I ever set the sun
And cause the skies to rain?

Everything, I thought, was right
Perfect as an angel’s heart
I saw the clearest of a night
Until you decided to depart

 
Now I can only sit and wonder
Where did our love lose its way
I sit and watch the crashing waves
Alone on a summer’s day...

Forever

You are not perfect
But I think you are
To tell you what I feel
Words can only go so far

If I could only share one ounce
Of the love I feel today
And to know, just for one second
That you feel the same way

I’d hold you for as long
As I could imagine forever
Although we say it couldn’t last
I don’t want to say never

The way we can talk
To understand, to just know
Is something so special
I never want to let it go

The time our paths did cross
And the lives that we live
Leave us, it seems, so little
To share and to give.

But to give, even a little
Is so much better than none
To be someone for each other
In life, in love, in fun

I am so thankful to be with you
Each and every each day
Kiss the smile on my face
And it would never go away
