The Lonely (5) - Conrad Mortiss
Lonely heart beneath the heavy dark sky
Searching shadows for love's warmth
Asking all the whys
The rivers hum their tune from years before
Now I'm here just pacing the paths
Of my past from long ago
Feelings that have now gone
Feelings and love flew away
Disappeared like dust in the wind
Mountains whisper tales that won't rescind
Valleys hold the echoes of what's gone
Now it's me all alone this world
With time moving on
Only the lonely hearts know what loneliness
Is truly about
Once the rivers sang in harmony
Our hearts were in synchrony
Warmth and caring resided here
Now they're murmurs just a memory
Walking through a life I barely know
Empty roads are all I have to show
Me my loneliness
Quiet halls without another soul
Feelings and love flew away
Disappeared like dust in the wind
Mountains whisper tales that won't rescind
Valleys hold the echoes of what's gone
Now it's me all alone this world
With time moving on
Only the lonely hearts know what loneliness
Is truly about
Love's a thread unraveled with time
Like old songs that never find their rhyme
Lost like dust in time
Once there was a hand I used to hold
Once there was a face that used to smile
And an embrace that would hold me tight
Where have the warm touches
And gentle kisses gone
Now I shiver in the cold
Longing for your heart's loving warmth
Feelings and love flew away
Disappeared like dust in the wind
Mountains whisper tales that won't rescind
Valleys hold the echoes of what's gone
Now it's me all alone
Feelings and love flew away
Disappeared like dust in the wind
Mountains whisper tales that won't rescind
Valleys hold the echoes of what's gone
Now it's me all alone this world
With time moving on
Only the lonely hearts know what loneliness
Is truly about
