There’ll Always Be That Someone Else

So many ones have come along,

Some drifting, some unaware, some with some kind of hold.

And you have held me for so long,

beneath a broken reverie, a sill made out of stone.

And though I never moved, succumbed to your embrace;

still you went on without a trace.

There’ll always be that someone else who’ll love me once again.

The days and nights, they pass me by;

they swiftly go beyond my breath, I’m left with but a sigh.

Though ev’ry color seems to fade, a gentle rainbow beacons through the slightest doubt or pain.

I hope there’s still that someone else who’ll love me once again.

I painfully recall the time you gazed into my eyes

and tearfully confessed your love for someone else.

I had to let it go; I had to keep my pride,

so I just walked away when you finally said goodbye. 

Too many ones have come along,

Some drifting, some unaware, some with some kind of hold.

And you have loved me for so long,

beneath a broken reverie, a sill made out of stone.

And though I never moved, succumbed to your embrace;

still you went on without a trace.

There’ll always be that someone else who’ll love me once again.
