Why
A fading memory
A longing for a breathe of air
Time grows weary
As the hands spin round and round

Visions of a smile
Reflecting back at me
Glorious rays of eternal flowers
All about the world

Searching for my heart
Darkest of nights
Not a prayer in sight
Why???

Why???

Why???

Why must the heart love so deep?
Why can no one see the gifts to bear?
Why must the mountain be so steep?
Why must the world, oh gentle heart tear?

Dreams upon dreams, upon dreams
So much love willing to share.
Ripping at the seams,
To the world it does bare.

One kind heart, faith has been lost
No glory to a bended knee.
Weakness and shameless love
Quicker the end will be found.

Why??
