Heart beats once
And beats twice
Never hateful
Always nice
Hides behind
Memories past
Takes away
Then makes it last
Darkness falls
Inside the room
Nothing shines
Only gloom
Heart beats once
Then fades away
Opens only
To the day
Tries to love
But cannot free
The burning hatred
Inside of me
Heart beats once
Then beats twice
Always  hateful
Never nice.

Broken dreams, lies undone
Ends a fight where no one won
Empty promises left behind
I turn away, but not unkind
A future love there will not be
A lonely life is left for me
Never tomorrow will I run
Away from this or  memories shun
For never will I be alone
In rising moon or setting sun
Another's heart my love will hold
And cry for me, for years untold
Your loss, my gain forever see
A better life waits for me.

I lie awake with silent dreams
A forgotten lovers touch
A story it so often seems
A lost memory to hush
Love songs of another time
Dance upon the wind
Taking me to where they be
A lost memory to lend
A heartbreak and a bleeding tongue
Of words and promises dead
Take me to another time
A lost memory to spend
Another lover waits for me
The broken time does bend
Forgotten is the pain of past
A lost memory to mend.

Heart on fire
Body worn
Never certain
Always torn
Want is growing
Desire and fear
Free my senses
Though never clear
Will you, won't you
Never sure
Doubt still lingers
But love is pure
Here forever
Without doubt
Till you decide
If in or out
True to you
Until the end
Whether I be
Lover or friend
Heart on fire
Forever be
Open until
You come for me.

I want to wake up every morning
With sunshine on my face
Songbirds outside my window
And the warmth of your embrace

I want to walk among the forests
Into the darkness deep
Experience a desert's night
And watch you while you sleep

I want to hike with you up a mountain
And bathe with you in a stream
Make love to you in a meadow
Of daffodils and green

I want to roll with you in a snow bank
And run with you in the rain
See all that we've been missing
And never come back again.

Let's run away together
Run far and wide and free
Do all the things we dream to do
Be all we wish to be.

Leave this world far behind
Taking nothing in our pack
Come run with me, let's run away
Never looking back.

Little voices
Often said
Useless are
Better dead
Take it now
Feel no pain
See the past
Never again
Run free now
Into the night
Leave for good
No more fright
Little sorrow
Nothing left
Free my mind
That's what
They said
Listen softly
Quiet now
Know no more
Tell me how
Live in peace
Without regret
Days to come
Better yet
Past is past
Whisper free
What's left is now
A better me.
