Ole Comfort
Stuck seeking familiarity
Waiting for the paths to clear out
Caught up in the past
Still forcing to keep from pouts
New people come along bringing great clarity
Which one is meant to last?

Like a willow in the wind
Our hearts tend to bend and bend
Waiting for the next angel
But possibly sticking with something not so great
Thus missing out on a godsend

Can hear words
Can listen to the singing of the birds
Can get sound advice
But nope, gotta live this
Live through it, see it to the end
Maybe even twice
Hoping
Simply hoping
That things workout nice

Sometimes people say too much
Other times they don't say enough
It's about this
It's about that
It's about such and such
But with the right people
Things aren't so tough

Finding comfort in predictability
Is your heart losing all credibility?

I do not know
He does not know
You
Not yet
Do not know

It's like the weather
Cold in some places
Warm in others
Love comes and go
How? We never know
It's like celebrating
That long sought
Rain or snow.

How will this end?
How much of your heart will you have to lend?

Missing out on anything good?
Did you do everything you could?

I've lived it before
You'll need to live it too
But in the end
Just exactly
Who will be with you?

Best of luck
No matter what
A happy heart with a happy ending
Is where I hope you'll find yourself stuck.
