Solitary Eye

My heart, alone, has been my friend
My constant through the years
I've learned to look at sunsets
Through the rainbow of my tears

So, is it just my need to know
If love is really true
that makes my foolish, trusting heart
Run back through time to you

If I didn't know any better
I'd let you steal my heart
In you I find the peace of mind
I've wanted from the start

But I have learned to look at life
With solitary eye
And not to trust the ways of love
And not to question why

So, why then does my heart look back
And fan the dying flame
And make me long for what is gone
A love that never came
