Loretta

Loretta, in light of my truth
Here I stand alone to try and explain
I'll say the words in a way that is just and fair, controlled and right by you
And I'm sorry I've held on for too long
And I'm sorry I've held on for too long

Was there something wrong in believing in something that brought me peace in my mind
Hopeful dreams through an otherwise obscure life
Yeah, I've held my right to believe it
The days have gone by when I needed it
When I hoped that this bird won't fly away
And love, once I find it, may it always be there to stay
May it never leave me
But I guess it was not meant to be

Loretta, I've prayed for the day when you wake up one morning and you know there was love here for you
I ask you now, how have you fared? What have you done?
Can you still flash that smile that froze me once before?
Once I wanted more until comes the day when you just hang it by the door
And I hope that your life won't be this way
And love, once you find it, may it always be there to stay
And may it never leave you
But then again, that's up to you
May it never leave you
But then again, that's up to you
