Genres: Drama,Alright, this time you worked me over
Cold spite, can this be all that I need
It's a feeling, and it won't leave me alone
I keep searching for love
Hearts turned to stone
Can't stop this endless dreaming, should have known from
the start
No way to break your scheming heart
Your love is gone, I see it fading away
Love burns the soul, I know where heartache remains
Sometimes when I think of what you mean to me
Look back, faces are all that I see
But the feeling, it won't leave me alone
I keep searching for love
Hearts turned to stone
Can't stop this endless dreaming, should have known from
the start
No way to break your scheming heart
Your love is gone, I see it fading away
Love burns the soul, I know where heartache remains
