"The Dreamer", by William J. Reynolds
Copyright © 2001, Age 45
I stand and watch as the world goes by
My heart is broken and wanting to cry
I look to the heavens and skies above
Hoping someday somewhere to bring back your love
I know in my heart, I meant to do well
And as it turned out I’ve put you through hell.
My life goes on, and its sad to say
I cry every morning, and die a little each day
The pain over whelming, the sorrow so deep
That I can’t have the love that I needed to keep.
My memories of your love are vivid and clear
Not having you now cuts through my heart like a spear
My heart full of pain at what has happened to you
When all is said and done you can only see blue
For it is that thought alone that keeps us apart
It kills all of my hoping of having a new start.
I dream of a change to the way that you think
That would stop all my hopes from continuing to sink
Spending endless hours thinking of what I could do
Only coming up empty because its all inside you
I am a good person and will continue to grow
For its you that I need, and am dying to know.
I lay down each night alone in my bed
While visions of your love dance in my head
My pillow has lines of broken heart tears
Sad that the future will be like that for years
I feel like I never showed you the love in my heart
Not knowing it was the one thing that would break us apart
If god were to give me just one more chance
I would promise you now to make your heart dance.
Sorry I am to have done this to you
I can’t change the past or what’s made you so blue
I can only go on thinking of our wonderful days
It’s the price that its cost me, I’m having to pay
Those are the things that continue to gleam
In the heart of this man who continues to dream.
