My past is made up of faded pain
Borrowed memories
Shattered time
At one time in my life
I would have bought love
No matter what the price
Just to get a taste of the real thing
On to be shot down again
From my perch in the ninth cloud
Life can change in a blink of an eye
A spark you can't quite figure out
Questions with no answers
Like how? and why?
Emotions begin to overflow in your heart
In an instant
You have no more control
One word, one look, one night
A connection you cannot explain
A love that sneaks up on you
A forbidden desire
Within your soul that you knew nothing of before
Something finally seems right.
