~ Seasons Of The Heart ~

 Of course, we have our differences; you shouldn't be surprised
It's as natural as changes in the seasons and the skies
Sometimes we grow together, sometimes we drift apart
A wiser man than I might know the seasons of the heart
And I'm walking here beside you, in the early evening chill
A thing we've always loved to do, I know we always will
We have so much in common, so many things we share
That I can't believe my heart when it implies that you're not there

 Love is why I came here in the first place
Love is now the reason I must go
Love is all I ever hoped to find here
Love is still the only dream I know

 So I don't know how to tell you, it's difficult to say
I never in my wildest dreams imagined it this way
Sometimes I just don't know you, there's a stranger in our home
When I'm lying right beside you is when I'm most alone
And I think my heart is broken, there's an emptiness inside
So many things I've longed for have so often been denied
Still I wouldn't try to change you, there's no one that's to blame
It's just some things that mean so much, we just don't feel the same

 Love is why I came here in the first place
Love is now the reason I must go
Love is all I ever hoped to find here
Love is still the only dream I know
True love is still the only dream I know
