Life and love…

 

She’s standing by the doorway

This last time around

Your silence does the talking

There ain’t need for a sound

Tonight’s the night for the dance

That’s been a long time coming

Once there used to be a reason to ask

Now there’s no need for persuading

 

Coz life has an odd way

Of letting you down

All the tales that you’ve woven

Are strange when they come around

 

Now your fingers tangled with each other

Your hearts are moving as one

These rules no longer bother

What’s done is long gone done

For those lost, treasured chances

Once again you both dive

In the warmth of those arms

You breathe; she comes alive

 

Coz love has an odd way

Of letting you down

All the dreams that you’ve chosen

Remain lost and found

 

Now these times are changing

As the clock strikes the hour

Not a wish lasts forever

Even the one on a falling star

And then you kiss goodbye

Yeah you laugh; you lie

Hold your breath for a moment

As to other worlds you each do fly

 

Coz life has an odd way

Of letting you down

All the tales that you’ve woven

Are strange when they come around

Yeah love has an odd way

Of letting you down

All the dreams that you’ve chosen

Remain lost and found
