MY LOVE ISN'T LIKE THE WAYWARD WIND

Yes, I am,

A restless man

But my love isn't like

The wayward wind.

My being is

Like wild fire

But my love isn't like

The wayward wind.

My passions are

Very fiery

But my love isn't like

The wayward wind.

In my eyes

A sadness glows

My love can't be like

The wayward wind.

My poetic soul

Kept seeking

A love unlike

The wayward wind.

She lives faraway

In a distant land

Saying I am like

The wayward wind.

And that I am

An enigma

That I remind her of

The wayward wind.

She often calls me

A crazy guy

And compares me with

The wayward wind.

But deep within

She too knows

My love isn't like

The wayward wind.

So I live on

A restless life

But my love isn't like

The wayward wind.

With a broken heart

I live my days

How can I be like

The wayward wind?

She loves to tease

She loves to joke

And likens me with

The wayward wind.

But deep within

Her own frail heart

She knows I am not

The wayward wind.

Her girlish voice

Her bubbling laugh

Are for me like

Two fountain springs.

So let me sing

The truth once more

That my love ain't like

The wayward wind.
