I must admit that I was warned
I never thought love would leave me scorned
I only feel I’m getting closer
The more I try to run away from her
My innocent heart
And soul’s torn apart
Every way points right back to the start
…
When I try to love you
All my hopes come tumbling down
When I want to see you
I scream your name all over town
I get hurt
There’s nothing but
I want to place above you
Every night
I have to fight
When I try to love you
When I try to love you
…
I tell myself it’s just another morn’
Just another time to feel so forlorn
No distraction is working at all
The more that I fly, the deeper I fall
My innocent soul
Is hard to console
How much longer would I keep digging this hole?
…
When I try to love you
All my thoughts come crashing down
When I want to see you
I shout your name all over town
I get hurt
There’s nothing but
I want to place above you
Every day
You make me pay
When I try to love you
When I try to love you
…
I really have to make myself understand
This is going nowhere. This has to end
Love is no good. It’s no good to pretend
…
When I try to love you
All my dreams come crumbling down
When I want to see you
My eyes seek you all over town
I get hurt
There’s nothing but
I want to place above you
Every night
I have to fight
When I try to love you
When I try to love you

Frank – a little lesson in life for your own self-esteem , NEVER let anyone know they GOT TO YOU – go in a closet out of sight and cry – keep a stiff upper lip – take two and call me in the morning – all people should maintain their dignity

This so relates to me. I recently went through this love turmoil but thank God I’m out. I feel emotional reading it.

That is exactly how it feels. Exactly the same. …..eyes looking all over the town…..thoughts and hopes crashing down…..distractions don’t work…. And everything else.
Overall it does really hurt.
I loved reading this. It’s amazing.
