Hopeless Love

Marco Antonio (El Gringo)

caprice of fate, that we would once share, a beautiful dream
calamity of love, the feelings we shared, we'll never forget
ardent flames, lost in the fire, and tears astray in the sea
from the beginning, the end was inevitable, though no regret



torn by the choices we both made kept us from being together
pride too strong to realize we were sacrificing our tomorrow
hurting one another, without reason or wanting was so tragic
after the rage was over our crying eyes expressed the sorrow



endless nights shared, without each other, where shall we go
now separate paths our lives will journey, ignoring the pain
restless souls, to love or be loved, ever a constant dilemma
searching the right answer, the struggle within, all in vain



illicit affairs, nothing could suffocate the burning passion
holding on, to treasured memories of times now, forever gone
never again feeling the intense fervor and unquenchable lust
hopelessly haunted by the vivid remembrance of our last dawn



emotions in the wind, everything bestowed nothing else to do
both listen for the sounds of children, that will never play
aspirations of yesterday, all the illusions we so much yearn
lovers loved, like winter snow on a summer's day melted away



neglecting to be together, now we won't have to use an alibi
expectations that were never met, a future that could not be
nectar of desire we once longed but today it would not be so
lovers loved, flames burned, two hearts that were you and me
