even if i'm suddenly running away
my heart and soul sure aren't leaving
until i'm cynical, wrinkly, grey and old
i'll find a reason to smile at the end of each day
you'll never replace what faith has grown
you'll never substitute what time has nurtured
for you're not hungry until you have starved
you have not drunk until you have thirsted
there's not sense in the word 'goodbye'
you know love from the hurt of its departure
the worth of achievements are in the struggle
friendship is best endured with great amounts of laughter
lonely is a popular place
where no one ever really meets
the finding of ones self
is in the survival of defeat
the lessons i have learnt
whether they be fiction, faith or truth
have made my heart and who i am
and this love of mine is only in its youth
