Analysis of Worthy of the Walk
Who knows why the heart grows fond?
And who's to say, if its real?
Who can say, why our heart cries?
Who can say, if love is not true?
There seems to be no answers, but only time.
Only life will teach us from each experience, and from each relationship.
What happiness we gather,
what we learn,
what we feel,
and when we hurt.
When we fall into, or out of love, still it was worthy of the walk.
