This thing called love

 I worked hard to keep a peace of mind
 trying to enjoy life and playing the game
 some days I had some ups and downs 
But it will always end up being the same 

There were some really tough days 
That would really bring me down
 But I would always pick myself up 
and i didn't need any one around

 And I learn by myself be strong
i  have been doing it since a child 
I had to survive being on my own 
Just Like a lion does in the wild 

Loneliness was all I ever knew
 and It became my close friend
 We learn to get along so well 
so I never want our friendship to end

 Love never once crosses my mind
 I Just did not had the time
 so I convince my lonely heart 
That love was another useless crime 

and I always kept to my self 
And always stayed out of sight 
and If I see a chance for love
 I would hide like an owl in the night 

But Then one day i saw someone 
And something just when wrong
 I try to hold on to my heart
 But I was no longer  that strong 

I lost my heart the very moment
 I looked in her beautiful eyes 
and then my heart found out 
all I said before was just lies 

All my reasons for hiding from love
 now it made no sense again
 Love came and take over my life
 Pouring down on me Like the rain 

And just like the  big blue sea 
Can not stop the coming tide
 I couldn't stop my heart 
From letting love come inside

 So I will give this thing called love a try 
because now its To late to choose
 And I will play for keeps and to win 
because a heart never likes to lose
