Tangled Strings (with audio)

There’s sadness in these words 
guilt in the revelation 
this man I thought a friend 
loves me without reservation

He would empty his heart 
so he could fill mine
and I know it would be easy
because our souls align

He loves me with no strings
but my heart’s attached to another
and if he keeps loving me 
I doubt we will recover

When he looks at me
my emotions start aching 
but I’ve made vows and promises 
I’ve no intention breaking

So, I hold his heart gently 
attempting to cause no pain
yet he only falls more deeply 
while all I feel is shame


Inspired by an Italian drama. Gesh those Italians know how to write heartache 💜
