My heart was made for loving but it feels so cold and empty, <br />And lonely days are haunting me so bad, <br />I wish that I could find a way to make my life much better, <br />Instead of being so lonely and so sad. <br />And now I feel like giving up there's nothing left to live for, <br />And somewhere else I may find joy at last, <br />Within the blossom sunrise as a brand new dawn is breaking, <br />I wish that I could now forget the past. <br /> <br />My heart was made for loving now in pieces lying broken, <br />And sunny skies are turning fast to rain, <br />For in my mind I've searched so long but couldn't find the answers, <br />As nobody could rid me of this pain. <br />And now it all seems hopeless and in truth I've stopped believing, <br />No comfort can I get in shattered dreams, <br />And the colours of the springtime have all faded into autumn, <br />No end to all the bitterness it seems. <br /> <br />My heart was made for loving not to carry this resentment, <br />Sometimes I feel I can do nothing right, <br />For everything I try I fail and I grow ever weaker, <br />So now I feel like giving up the fight. <br />Nobody wants to know me or to dry these tears I'm crying, <br />Nobody wants to take a chance with me, <br />And the hand the dealer dealt to me could not have been much crueller, <br />And it's not the way I wanted life to be.<br /><br />ANDREW BLAKEMORE<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-heart-was-made-for-loving/
