love

The heart wants what it wants
It ignores the pain of old haunts
Even with the pain it seeks still
For someone to love and help it heal

Oh foolish heart, can't you see
True love may not be meant for thee
I wrap you in ice to make you cold
And still you look for someone to hold

The heart ignores the deep wounds
Always reaching for love too soon
Nevermind the scars it will bear
Only wanting its love to share

Oh you fickle heart please refrain
My mind can only take so much pain
I build up the wall so high
but you knock it down with just a sigh

The heart has learned to forgive
Longing only to love and live
Forgetting the hurt in its past
Always searching for a love that will last

Oh poor broken little heart
Can't you see you are falling apart?
I can't deny you the happiness you seek
To be gained only by a love that is deep

So go forth, sweet heart
Find the love you sought from the start
I remove the wall of ice and stone
And I hope you can find us a home
