I ask of you my darlin'

Please try to understand

I have tried so hard

As I walk about this land

Wanting it all and wanting it near

But the years that have past

And are replaced by the fear

So hardened inside

So much pain I do feel

So many lies that have been told

So much betrayal is unreal

What have I done to bring it about

Did I miss the road I should travel

Should I turn it around

Should I accept it as is

Should I fight for what's right

Should I hope it all fades away

In the middle of the night

It's been a long road

I've traveled so far

To wish for a life

On a bright shining star

Happiness is all that I ever asked for

To quit all the heartache

Leave it behind the closed door

To let me show all

The magic that can be done

To just open up and finally have fun

To do all the things I have wanted to do

To bring about joy from a heart that is true

The road has been long

I need a new start

With you by my side

Till the days become dark

Together we can make it

If we believe in what's real

Forget all the pain, and live as we feel.
