Do you see The wonder in this life Even if it has its pitfalls Deep and unsavoury Isn't the feeling in your stomach a sign you're alive? That racing thrill That sweet sweet pleasure The first sip of tea in the morning The last ray of shine before night And yet Despite these wonders Despite my desires I cannot find it in me to be happy I am distracted My thoughts return only to you and how we cannot be I drift in this glorious yet unforgiving sea Will my love forever be a secret Will I always clutch my heart in regret As I think of what could have been The sights we would have seen I want to be the shoulder on which you lean It will never be reality pity
