Chasing Your Heart’s Desires

My hope has been shattered.

Will you help me mend it?

It's been so long,

and I miss feeling happy.

My joy has been scattered.

Will you help me find it?

I'll sing this song,

and maybe you will listen.

My love has been stolen.

Will you come to save me?

My eyes can't see,

and I can't shake this feeling.

My heart has been swollen.

Will you come to fix me?

My heart can't beat,

and I know that I'm dying.
