Repost, made some serious adjustments to this piece... You might make up some story You recall from the memories of a love you knew back when You were strong enough in your heart To let the growing promise of forever chase the wind But you know now You're left to realize You have to guard against a love with bitter ends With pains inside you You may find yourself running from an open window Where dreams you once knew are calling you again Chorus: But you'll always wonder, cuz love will chase you It's always streaming through the chambers of your cistern, Within your thoughts The time worn reasons To drop the fear and hurt and wake up to the chance You might love again You might see yourself hiding Beneath the sorrow of the ruins of a love you never found And you'll remember something difficult within you Would bind you to the hopes that ran aground Well don't consider it unearned When the dreams you once knew come calling you again So you will always wonder cuz love will chase you It's always streaming through the chambers of your cistern Within your thoughts The time worn reasons To drop fear and hurt and wake up to the chance You might love again. Lyrics Eric True January 27th 2019 true love never looks after it's own interests |

Good ending Eric, you definitely have to drop the fear first. Think I'm one of those guys who believes love just seems to find you, a kind of destiny thing, whether or not you're looking for it. |
