Lost and Lonely

Jacqueline VanKeuren

Rhymed
Lost and Lonely
And looking for love
Giving a lot and not getting enough
Trying so hard to make it come true
I'm bending over backwards
I'm doing it for you
Now you've left me standing
Feeling so blue
Now trying so hard to get over you
When the pain is gone
I can move on
And try to find the love I long.
