Unrequited love, it’s a painful thing
An unspoken feeling that heartache brings
It’s longing for someone, who doesn’t feel the same
A love that’s one-sided, but can’t be tamed

It starts as a spark, a tiny flame
A feeling that captivates, and calls your name
You can’t help but fall, deeper each day
But as time passes, you see it slip away

Unrequited love, it’s a one way street
A journey of heartbreak, so very bittersweet
It’s feeling the ache, with every single beat
Of a heart that longs, but can never meet

You try to move on, to let it all go
But the memories linger, they refuse to bellow
You’re trapped in a world, that’s not your own
An unrequited love, a heart that’s grown

It’s hard to accept, when love doesn’t come
When you’ve given your heart, to someone
You hope and pray, that they’ll see the light
That one day something, will just feel right

Unrequited love, it’s a storm inside
A feeling of emptiness, you can’t hide
It’s wanting to be wanted, but not being able to
It’s being in love, but feeling so blue

The pain is deep, the hurt is real
It’s a wound that never quite heals
But in time you’ll learn, to let it all go
A love that’s unrequited, is one to outgrow

You’ll find new love, a love that’s true
A love that won’t leave, or make you feel blue
A love that’s meant to be, just like you
Unrequited love, it’s just a passing view.
