Another Life

I see her face in the quiet rain

A shadow falls where my vows remain

Her smile a knife that cuts my souls vein

I wear this ring like a crown of thorns

My golden band a promise torn

Maybe in another life

Where hearts don’t break

And wrong feels right

We’ll dance beneath a kinder sky

But not in this....life

Not tonight

I hear her laugh in the still of night

It echoes soft

Her soul burns so bright

I hate myself, my betrayal takes flight

This heart of mine

I just can’t betray

But my heart

It’s gone

It’s run away

Maybe in another life

Where hearts don’t break

And wrong feels right

We’ll dance beneath a kinder sky

But not in this....life

Not tonight
