Sorting through piles of yesterday's dreams
I came across a memory of a girl I once knew
Beautiful in spirit and pleasing to the eye
But in this mound lay her vision like so many more
Oh, to start over and fresh
Searching through the remnants of tomorrows ambitions
I came across a girl I have yet to know
Outwardly stunning and a beautiful soul
In this heap of remains of future loves lost I place her image back down among the masses
I know there is more heartache in store
Feeling through the insides of hopes I used to have
I came across a girl I once wanted to know
Quite lovely she was with intellect to match her beauty
Slipped from my fingertips, merely another I let go
I only ever wanted one more chance
Someday I will stick my hand in my pocket
And find a name on a crumpled piece of paper
That day I will find a faded number to call
Maybe her, maybe another, maybe one or the other
Funny sometimes how things work out
I don't believe that there can only be one love for me
If that is the gospel than I will be alone for eternity
I have already loved, and I have lost just the same
If I put my faith in destiny will she let me down?
Or is it ultimately up to me?
