My wasted heart

 
Growing older, with memories on my mind;
Wishing I could have had more time to share,
With the women I have loved.
Laughing at love with open eyes, now I am no longer blind;
Romantic comedies are my painful addiction
And my love life is so unjust.


Sing me a song and I will take it to my heart;
Let the backing singers sing along and let their voices be heard!
My wasted heart has forever been lost in the dark;
Will you become my guiding light
And let me see clearly through the blur?


I want to find love, so inside a film I look.
Can you help me find the love I seek?  
There are too many books on love.
All I want is you; let me into your life for a while.
Dance with me under a disco ball and I will try to make you smile.


Raise the trumpets, bang the drums;
Clap those hands and sing about love!
Let my wasted heart find those three words it wishes to hear.
Surely I deserve a little piece of happiness too;
Am I ever going to find a real and true love that will never disappear?
Before you depart and vanish from my life,
Let me leave a thought inside your mind…


Could you fall hopelessly head over heels with me?
And could I be someone you could be with?
I would like to know, how do you feel and what do you see?
When you have come to your decision, could you give me a hint?


If we had never met and you had never known of my existence,
Would you have missed out on something that you could desire?
If you were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
And I had never asked for your assistance;
Would I have made a mistake if I had never told you,
You are what I require?


Would my love have been wasted, without you to love?
Or would you make the first declaration inside a crowded café?
You can leave and forget me, but I would never give up on love;
So before you walk away and waste my heart once again,
Please remember how you felt when we first met…
Before I become a stranger and I sadly walk away.
