What Never Was It's five O'clock in the morning first night alone's crept by me the curtains on this open window flutter in the morning breeze I stare out at the dim lit street gazing through a misty rain thinkin about why we went our separate ways Chorus: we got caught up in each other wonderin where our future'd go two lonely souls together hiding in each others hope searching for that magic feeling some call the one and only love an we fooled ourselves believing we would find what never was... In two more hours I leave this room fade into the working day I'll always remember you but things'll never be the same Still I wish I could hold you one more time to fill the space you left behind in my mind and in this empty place. Chorus: we got caught up in each other wonderin where our future'd go two lonely souls together hiding in each others hope searching for that magic feeling some call the one and only love an we fooled ourselves believing we would find what never was... Bridge: We were looking for answers that heal lonely minds Living love cliches that only speak of passing time Chorus: we got caught up in each other wonderin where our future'd go two lonely souls together hiding in each others hope searching for that magic feeling some call one and only love an we fooled ourselves believing we would find what never was Ain't doin nothin at all |

Only a full life citizen could write these lyrics and have them be so real. Smiles from TD |

Thank you Midnite for relating and for goodness sake, get some sleep.....LOL Thanks Sy for taking the time to read this and comment. Sunshine I'm working on that now and will post when I have it available. Thanks for dropping in to read this. Hi MGROVES and thanks for going there and waking up with this piece. Hey TD if you could see my big belly then you'd realize how accurate you are by using the term "full life citizen". I thank you for the kind remarks. Hey Marge it's always good to hear from you and even better to reach your soul. Thanks for the kind words and the hug. iliana thanks for reading this and as I mentioned, I will post this when I have the music to it. Dixie thanks for such a wonderful superlative this early in the morning. I appreciate the thought. Ain't doin nothin at all |
