Hopeless Love

Longingly, my heart called out your name
Every night, asleep, it was you I'd see
Though I knew this dream I could not claim

I craved to be with you since the day you came
My heart was yearning inside me
Longingly, my heart called out your name

No more did I want my life to be the same
I sought to be with you by guarantee
Though I knew this dream I could not claim

I learned the goal for which I would aim
I knew it was you I desired to see
Longingly, my heart called out your name

Even though I knew there was no one to blame
It was such a strong dream, I wished it could be
Though I knew this dream I could not claim

You are not really there, which gives me shame
This knowledge is painful to such a degree
Longingly, my heart called out your name
Though I knew this dream I could not claim
