I prayed for you to hear me
Oh, love how I pray for you to hear me
I hunt over and over in my heart
Thinking was my love ever good enough
I have so much I would like to ask you
But my words are holding back,
I know what we once had
Are now something of the past,
I can no longer fight with that
Sometimes getting older
Makes the mind somewhat smarter,
But when Love is no longer
makes the heart grow thin
my heart bleeds out just for you to hear me
I write so many letters,
Poems and even sad, songs
But I never known if you ever hear them,
The sound of the gulls upon the beach
My mind starts to track down our memories
While my heart starts to ache for you,
I pray that you one day could hear me 
To feel how empty my heart is without you,
Your words you once told 
I put them around my heart like a necklace
I still crave your touch 
Oh, my love I miss you that much,
I watch the sunset dip down into the sea
Oh, how my heart does bleed,
I watch my words when it comes to you,
I write and I write day and night
But I am so way off when it comes to 
What I really want to say to you,
In some way, my words are more 
Like something you would say,
My love, why does it have to be like this?
My world is climbing down fast
this old suffering that I lived 
is the writing of damp tears of long years
the wall of pains knowing you are long gone
I hold love the blame
for given me all this rain,
I look all around me;
all loves beauty faded into darkness
you once had filled my heart with joy and light
oh, how everything felt so right
you filled my heart with so much love,
but that was way before it all end.
