Love Immortalized

What’s your name?
Ten thousand stars up in the sky
Mimic the light in your eyes
What’s your name?
Is it Sammy or Charles?
Or ten thousand names I can’t say
What’s your name?
Ten thousand stars up in the sky
Twinkling bright like the stars in your eyes
I long to feel your arms embrace me
Linger and softly touch my face
Oh it’s too bad, so sad
A thousand stars up in the sky
Created my own demise
Love seeps through my veins
Faster than a rumor through
Through a small town
Love is the valley of my mind’s eye

Can’t make me realize
That giving you my heart is so unwise
Your love is untrue – vaporized
Everyone who criticized you
Was right to warn me
Not to idolize you
To love is to learn
Although my heart yearns
For you baby
You remain taciturn and unconcerned
I cannot mend my broken heart
Everyone told me I was too smart
Tried to tear us apart
I insisted you were my sweetheart
Our love was doomed from the start
Saw you through blinded eyes
Now I realize my heart is so unwise
