Echoes of a Selfish Heart

You just have to call my name and I will come through wind or flame They say it’s strange they call it vain but still I’d go through joy or pain Even if we’ve just begun even if I know you none I’ll be right there no questions why drawn by a force I can’t deny It’s not because my heart is so pure nor that kindness makes me feel secure I dream that when my world turns cold a hand will reach, a heart will hold someone will do the same for me and be bold But dreams don’t always turn out right not every day is warm and bright not every sea is blue and light When trouble comes I stand there alone just me and my shadow in the unknown And yet no matter what I feel I’ll help whenever pain is real Hoping one day when I can’t stand someone will reach and take my hand
