For all those who feel empty in heart and are lonely...


Love will Knock at Your Door...

Emptiness is something you feel
And I can understand,
But one-day love will come to you,
in front of you stand,
And you will be surprised to know
that it has come your way,
All of its own accord,
And in a sure way:

It will fill your heart with sweetness,
your soul will fly high,
up above in the realm of fantasy
and forever make you sigh:
A sigh of love and not of sorrow
will rise from you bosom
and fill your days and morrow
with sweetest of rhythm...

So, hang in there my dear friend,
and don't despair at all,
'Cause love will come, knock at your door,
And ask you: 'May I?'
