Still hoping for the instant when to you I have been seen,
Engraving moments on my heart each time that you’re around,
While knowing that we’ll never be, to you my soul is bound.

I hunger for a love denied, that no other can sustain,
All the while enduring hell through this self inflicted pain,
This game of love’s an awful curse and something I can’t win,
‘Cause the saddest thing that never was, is a love that’s never been.

I pass my time with thoughts of you while living for the dream,
Still hoping for the instant when to you I have been seen,
Engraving moments on my heart each time that you’re around,
While knowing that we’ll never be, to you my soul is bound.

I hunger for a love denied, that no other can sustain,
All the while enduring hell through this self inflicted pain,
This game of love’s an awful curse and something I can’t win,
‘Cause the saddest thing that never was, is a love that’s never been.
