------Riding Alone------
How many tears does a heart need to bleed Before the pain goes away Is sorrow a stain that can't be removed Which never lets happiness stay Tho' sunshine may come, the rain always falls With few days of summer it seems The winter surrounds the life that I live Its cold wind destroys all my dreams Is it really just me or could it be fate That somehow I just never win I've failed life I guess or has it failed me I know that I can't blame a friend For if you have friends I've heard people say A failure you never will be No friends do I have or close confidants and I'm not sure I'm friends with me. So let me pass on and no more will I grieve for a life with joy, not this sorrow Perhaps I may find a peace in my heart and a brighter sunrise tomorrowR. Wayne Porter
