Take This Pain and Let It Fly


Take this pain and let it fly
High above me in the sky,
Let her know how I feel--
Lost and lonely.

I have tried to change this place,
But each day a stranger's face
Lets me know how I feel--
Lost and lonely.

If I had a pair of wings,
I'd fly to her and sing,
Then perhaps she'll see my heart
Lost and lonely.

Let this poem sail away
To my darling's heart one day
And perhaps she'll understand
How much I love her...

Take this pain and let it fly
High above me in the sky,
Let her know how I feel--
Lost and lonely.
