If Love Is Real

If love is real

Why can't you take love and lock love away

In some safe place

Where you won't lose love and keep love

Each day untouched so warm and near

Where love will stay so pure and clear

The evenings pass

And I wonder where you are sleeping tonight

Are you awake

Running through memories remembering

How good it felt when love took hold

Our future plans that won't unfold

Now days are long

Just patches of time thrown together like clouds

Of empty hours blinded by pictures of places we knew

And now in space I stare

Without your soul and thoughts to share

It all seems lost

Left are just words but without much to say

Cause if love's real

You have to trust and let love go its way
