Concrete and Lace

Concrete and Lace
When I look into your eyes, when I look into your face
All I see is concrete and lace...
Hurt that years can not erase.. .
A lady tried and true
Tested by life, but remaining pure
In spirit, but not in flesh
You tried to begin again
But found only another dead end
Just more of the same
Only Concrete and lace.
Love is given, then it’s taken away,
Like concrete and lace
You are still the girl, who wished for a home
A mommy and Daddy
To call her own
Yet you walked the streets alone
Streets of Concrete and lace
Love is given, then it’s taken away
Just concrete and lace
You learned how to live, how to love,
And how to guard your precious heart
With Concrete and Lace
Love is given, then it’s taken away
Like concrete and lace
I look into your face
Hoping for love, But it’s more of the same
Just concrete and lace
Love is given, then it’s taken away
Like concrete and lace
Will there ever be another?
Will we ever recover?
Love is given, then it’s taken away
Like concrete and lace
