You Can't Love Someone The band of gold slipped off his finger The ring of love meant nothing now They'd never live forever after A loss was written upon his brow You can't bring the east to the west You never know what is best You can't hold a hand that won't be held You can't love someone who won't be loved A distance grew so far between them That only separate they became Out of love they had fallen No one's fault no one to blame The wedding vows they had taken Words directed from the heart Had lost their strength and their meaning There was no fire, there was no spark NANCE Brody © 2012 Nancy Read (SOCAN) All rights reserved
