love in slow motion

I sit at home alone, my heart it so does hurt

I sit here and cry, the tears they hit the dirt

they form a river of everlasting pain, of loneliness and sorrow

knowing that today is just a shadow of tomorrow

I wonder what my life would be like with someone I can hold

our hearts would become one, together we would grow old

we would have happiness together with smiles on our faces

we would enjoy each others company, meet people and go places

I know it's just a dream, a blessing in disguise

I wish I could wake up from this nightmare and open up my eyes

I'm just a normal guy with feelings and with needs

but all I ever find is selfishness and greed

why can't I have a normal life, a life to be proud of

where are you at in my time of need, I'd give you all my love

you don't hear my cries of emptiness, my song of depression

if I've done something wrong, I think I've learned my lesson

I need you in my life, where are you at my love

I send my feelings out to you, like a beautiful white dove

I hope some day you get my message, like a bottle in the ocean

when you do and we are together, our lives will go in slow motion
