Alone Once More

I am alone once more.
That hope, lost, again.
It's back to the quiet night.
It's back to being alone.

I am alone once more.
It isn't meant to be.
Perhaps it was my fault,
Perhaps it was me thinking too much.

Why is it that these come and go,
That it always seem to be,
But yet always come to naught?
How long do I have to wait,
For her to come into my life?
Truly, truly, truly, when is it my turn?

I am alone once more.
I want to love and be loved.
The comfort of having someone,
The warmth of that embrace.

Why is it that these come and go,
That it always seem to be,
But yet always come to naught?
How long do I have to wait,
For her to come into my life?
Truly, truly, truly, when is it my turn?

Oh oh oh, where are you,
Am I meant to endure each night
Lonely and cold, without comfort
In words, hugs, and hopefully kisses?

Oh oh oh, when will you arrive,
To thaw the brutal winter within
Making the strongest weak,
And the weakest strong?

And, why is it that these come and go,
That it always seem to be,
But yet always come to naught?
How long do I have to wait,
For you to come into my life?
Truly, truly, truly, when is it my turn?

I am alone once more.
And every night, I pray and sing,
Waiting quietly, hoping patiently for you.
