Why be so cruel, cruel world, so cruel,
Why can't love just be here for me,
Is it some stupid senseless rule,
That love won't or ever will be,
My love for my kids always here,
But I need something more in life,
Need that feeling someone will care,
Unfortunately there's this strife,
I thought it was here but nope gone,
One time it was just the one date,
I brought her home it was near dawn,
Damn here I thought it all went great,
Not a week later words are short,
Messages a little dimmer,
The smile on my face not my sort,
And her eyes no longer glimmer.
