A lover knows death many times over <br />They die each time they are passed over <br />Dreaming of a lover's touch <br />Passion among the cool grass and clover <br /> <br />Winds of change rearrange <br />and break a lover's heart <br />Fears of love leaving <br />and romance falling apart <br /> <br />The greatest fear for a lover <br />is to be alone and without care <br />to wake up and realize <br />there isn't anybody there <br /> <br />Lovers die 1000 times <br />But live 1000 more <br />as love comes and goes <br />Lover's don't keep score <br /> <br />Lover's dream non-stop <br />and lover's don't ask or reason why <br />Lovers are noted by their inner passion and try <br />lest they break down on bended knee and cry <br /> <br />Lovers always keep their care <br />and caring does never cease to flow <br />This is a lover's secret <br />of which you now know <br /> <br />Lover's die 1000 times <br />and each time they feel the pain <br />but in their lover's hearts <br />Love does ever remain <br /> <br />And if you find a lover <br />They might bring you joy <br />They might your heart entertain <br />But of your lover, you'll always recall their name <br /> <br />Lovers have a passion <br />built upon human understanding and compassion <br />They follow their own beat and don't stay with what's in fashion <br />When it comes to love, lovers give all and never ration <br /> <br />If you should find a true lover <br />never let them go <br />They'll give your heart all the love <br />it ever dreamed to know <br /> <br />A lover is not a player <br />and a player does never love <br />If you ever meet a lover <br />Then your heart will learn about love <br /> <br />If you should meet a lover <br />The moment you'll realize <br />You'll see a tinge of sadness deep <br />as you look into their eyes <br /> <br />Because lovers have died many times over <br />And through each broken dream that fell apart <br />they always dreamed of love <br />and know well the ache and longing of a broken heart<br /><br />JAMES T.
