Hard to Hold On To
As it was so long ago
There are many things we shall never know
The great mysteries of today
Seem so ordinary when they stay
The quest
Is simply the best
Why is love so hard to hold on to
Why are people so hard to hold on to
We find the one we want
Yet we let it go far too easy
In our life so many things will come and go
The ones we loved we miss them so
On again to find that which we do not need
Only wishing to be freed
From the pain we know all to well
That which makes our hearts swell
For love that is lost
Shall never be replaced
So hard to hold onto
Yet we never cared so much
Until it was not ours
Remember when we play
The games of love someday
That life is so hard to hold onto
