Twist Of Fate

Why is it lately

The smile on your face is no more?

Where does all the warmth go

When you walk in the door?

Is there nothing left in your eyes?

What gets you up in the morning

And stays with you through the day?

What happened to the girl that I used to know?

Where did that sparkle go?

Tell me, it can't be so

You get through the day

But the emptiness comes to consume you

The embers are gone and the day is done

It's too late to change

Mistakes you made yesterday

But the choices of tomorrow you still have to face

What happened to the girl I used to see?

Why can't you let your happiness be?

Please, help me to see

Your life's not over , there are choices to make

Anything can change

You're the only one to blame

I made you smile once

But can I do it again?

After all through we have been

You're in the mind frame of a time long ago

Where did your happiness go?

Please tell me, it just isn't so
