Blinded By Desire And Loss

9.15.2018

 

We can see

What we want in the future

We can see

What we’ve lost in the past

But what we have today

Right in front of us

Can’t see it though

Blinded by desire and loss

Blinded by desire and loss

 

Our love is a forest

Of giant Sequoia trees

Tall enough to stir the clouds

Large enough to drive through

You’re right there in front of me

Yet still, I look right through you

You can’t see me begging on my knees

We can’t see the forest for the trees

We can’t see the forest for the trees

Happiness the price

Your heart the cost

Won’t know until tomorrow

When I can look back

And see what I’ve lost

Blinded by desire and loss

Blinded by desire and loss

 

I had you today

I’ve lost you to the past

So I look to the future

With the desire to get you back

Because cherishing the present

An experience I lack

Blinded by desire and loss

Blinded by desire and loss
