Makes You Wonder

As I gaze into the stars up above,

I wonder what's become of our love,

Knowing what we had,

Or what could've been,

We live with our sorrow down within.

As I look into a faraway land,

I see you holding my hand,

And the nights seemed so young,

Back when we'd just begun,

Makes you wonder what could have been.

Makes you wonder what was there before,

And why we love each other no more,

Forgotten's in the past,

Have gone away at last,

With memories of what used to be.

Now we've both ended up alone,

Living with our sorrow not shown,

Thinking about what was,

And if we'll find new love,

Trying to leave the past behind.

Makes you wonder what was there before,

And why we love each other no more,

Forgotten's in the past,

Have gone away at last,

With memories of what used to be.

So don't look, and it won't hurt.

Hide your fears, and don't show your pain,

That longing once before,

Shall be with you no more,

And your memories will cloud beneath your mind.
