The Prince of Hearts

[John Barnett]

Where did I ever go wrong?
Why are my dreams now gone?
I could write a full length song
Depicting my life as a pong
Sometimes it just sucks to be me
I just want to be set free
Why can't they let me be
Maybe I just want to see
The world through rose colored glasses
Instead of sitting in a pile of ashes
Left from yet another bitter burning
As my heart is left yearning
My love is thriving on fire
And I am so full of desire
With no place to take it
But I can never forsake it
But make it into a humble temple
A perfect shrine built so simple
For a Prince of Hearts
Who has played every imaginable part
In trying to be a successful lover
Instead of being again looked over

[T.J. Barber]

I enjoyed this one. Have I seen this one before. I cannot remember if I have or not. Anyway, great job writing it...

Great piece and something I, and certainly others, can relate too.
