CARELESS HEART

Letting you in again
After so much time
Thought those feelings had left
Now all rushes back again
And I can't resist that which never was

Words fall so beautifully
From lips once desired
Never able to believe in what was said
For eyes lying betraying the loveliness
Of what was being expressed

Somehow the deeds never match
Never has the expression been fulfilled
Leaving an empty space where love once was
Now only room for another possibly someday to fill
Trust is so hard to find

Winding down this road again
How could this be
Haven't I learned the lessons from so long ago
Why is letting go so hard
Desire such a devil when you are around

Without a sound you will come
Then you will go
Never really sure if you were here at all
But it is I who will take the fall
If I let you in again

Resisting those charms
Seductive talk of never ending trust
So hard to believe in
For all you have now
Empty lines, they have lost their meaning

Words now falling from those lips
Those words fail now to move my heart
For too many times I tried but you left
You ripped me apart with your uncaring ways
No longer down on my knees for you can I be
Trust fails for you were careless with my heart
