  Alone Again with Love I remember the times we were together. They were the happiest moments in my life. All those memories were so happy, but now, there’s nothing here with me. I’m alone without you, with no one to talk to. Can you see you’ve hurt me badly? My love for you was true. What’s left to say when you’ve left me? Nights are cold without you, and sometimes I wish I’d never met you because then my heart won’t be broken right now. Had I never met you, then my dream won’t be dying today, and I’d be happy without you here. Had you not loved me the way you did, I wouldn’t have to remember of those loving nights together. Had you not spent those nights holding me tightly and sweetly, I wouldn’t be in pain today. Now, there’s only an image of you and nothing else. The love songs and the passing hours remind me of you. Sometimes I wish I’d never met you because then my heart wouldn’t be broken and my dreams wouldn’t be lost. And alone, I’d be happier knowing tomorrow will be a br...

  All the Way in Love When the lights go out, I’ll think of you. Tomorrow, when the snow begins to fall, there’ll be my footsteps in the snow. I’ll try to remember of those passing moments of the love I miss so dearly. Tomorrow, when the nights come and the lights go up, the roads will be empty. The streets will be lit while I walk alone on the quiet roads. Inside the happy homes, sweet dreams will be made. I’ll walk as the snow falls, and I’ll remember of those days when we walked in the snow. I’ll think back to when we were watching the falling snow, and I’ll think about the love that I’d cherished. Today, that love has died while the snow continues to fall. The footsteps have disappeared as I wander these streets while I think about you, the person whom I’d loved all the way without regrets.

  All the Rain in Love Why is my love life always on such shaky ground? I always try so hard to find the right person who’d love me, who I’d truly love, and someone who’d be there for me and understand my feelings. However, I always seem to find true love for one happy moment but then quickly lose that love. I thought I found the person I’ve been looking for when I met you. Happiness was all around us after we fell in love. We could’ve had everything, but then you left. Maybe I was living in too much happiness. Maybe I was in my own reality because love could never be happiness forever. Sometimes it takes several heartbreaks and happy and sad moments before you find true love. But how many more heartbreaks do I have to go through before I find the right one? I always find happiness in love like the sun shining down on me. However, at the end of the day, I also end up finding the rain falling down and washing away my love. 

  All That’s Left One small mistake and we fell apart. One little lie and you said goodbye. It wasn’t my fault that I gave you all my love. It wasn’t foolishness when I looked into your eyes and told you I loved you. You were the only person who really brought the word joy into my life. All that’s left now is a little memory of us like the shadows that we left on those walls. I think about those nights when we walked home as you sang to me. Now the nights come but I’m walking home alone. All that’s left are lyrics to our love songs. The melodies have died like the end of the world. There’s nothing left here but the memory of that warm day when you came into my life. I can always sing the love songs to myself, but they’ll never sound the same like when you sang them to me. 

  All Out of Tears What is all this crying for? Even if we cry, love has passed by us. Love is over, dreams are gone, and hopes are dead. Why do we cry when tomorrow has come to an end? The tears we’ve saved for tomorrow have come and washed away all the memories of when love first blossomed. We’re out of tears for our lost love and for the pain we’ve put on each other. The time we’ve saved now has gone wasted along the roads that we’ve shared. 

  Age Seventeen I learned to love when I was seventeen. I learned to love like I had never before. The one who taught me how to love was you. You guided me through the sweet words and poems that you dedicated to me. I thought my first love would be complete, but I was wrong. I was too young to overcome the pain of losing you at seventeen. I wanted to be with you forever because you were so wonderful, so tender, and so beautiful. Your words, and even your lies, kept me happy. The day you left me, I didn't know what to do. I hung to the walls crying and remembering every last minute with you. I looked into the mirror and asked why I was without you, but there was no one to answer me. I was seventeen and loving someone was too much for me. Loving someone was great at first, but I didn't ask for pain and tears. If only love was there for me when you broke me down. 

 

  Afternoon of Love The voice that sang to me during those beautiful summer days now remains silent in the stillness of the afternoon. The loneliness of those afternoons without love now creeps up to me. The quiet footsteps were wonderful when you walked into my life. Those beautiful summer days, hand in hand, we walked along the roads of love. They bring back many memories, but now you’re gone. The memories now slowly die away. What will life be like without you beside me? What will tomorrow end with when there’s no one beside me? What’s left when I can never look you in your eyes and tell you how much I love you?
