The heart is slow to learn
The heart is slow to learn
These feelings that I feel
are foolish, but they're real
I'm wise enough to see
this love will never be
But each day's like the last
when living in the past
I know it's mad
and you won't return
But then, as I have said
The heart is slow to learn
I'll never love
as I loved you
Why is love cruel?
I wish I knew
It was started with hesitation
for the differences is far above the flirtation
But my mom often said: "You'll never know if you won't try"
So I've tried. Lord knows I've tried.
Obstacles were seen as challenges
Trying hard to be the best, and find ways
Trying hard to give support, and create opened doors
But Lord, what a weak creature You have created!
Within a blast my energy has ceased to last.
Don't seem to have any strength to move on
Worried if it would only hurt the loved one
Why Lord, why?
Love can grow, but the need doesn't follow?
Would it be love, without the need?
Take care, take care of him, I’m worried.
If today is really the furthest we can go, Lord, I have prayed
For there'll be someone who’s needing him as much as being needed.
Lord, save him.
Blame me.

Isn't it funny how old lyrics sound differrent with differrent situations?
Old words sounds magically new,
when ur in "that" frame of mind?
I feel this song..... beautiful..... :)
A wise friend of mine said: To be happy simply just for the notion of being together is a selfish act.
Love is not possession....
Another old cliche that needs hard swallowing.... :p |

absolutely, you may quote, fully or some partly, any of my song for that is what my songs are for, representing various feelings we sometime can't decipher in words. glad i can somehow help, dear child.
as my old buddy rio used to say, human is basically selfish, we try to seek our happiness by finding someone to fulfill our needs. but in a world full of selfish people, what counts is our efforts to 'not be selfish' by trying to fulfill the needs of others, our loved one(s)-well, one never really sure how many one may give, don't we? *wink*
hence, dear, the word effort itself implies the existence of energy for no effort is to carry out without the strength, the energy to perform it.
and as my other dear old buddy einstein said, energy is a relativity, my dear. so, your effort, your love, it is not simply vaporising like a dew in the morning sun, it only changes shape.
it may return to its previous shape when the night falls and the cold air of morning freeze the hot air and turn it into the beautifully sparkling enchanting dew.
be patient, child. |
