FINDING LOVE

Once I knew Love, then gave it away, Afraid of getting hurt, wanting to stay.

Everything went wrong, I was to blame, Didn't know what to do, wanting things to change.

Found someone else, who was in it for pride! Said that he loved me, but I knew he lied.

I was playing a game, that no-one could win. I lost the most! Would I ever let you in?

If I had opened my heart, and looked inside, I might have known, but afraid of what I would find.

So instead of having love, I gave it away. My heart broke in two, nothing left to say.

Now you're back in my life, that's the way it should be. If I can't realize that by now, I don't think I'll ever see.

They say "Love is blind", I must really have been. Now I've opened my eyes, and I hope things will mend.

I am showing my Love the best I know how, When I say, "I Love You!", I intend to keep this vow.
