November Rain

"When I look into your eyes1

I can see a love restrained2

But darlin' when I hold you3

Don't you know I feel the same4

'Cause nothin' lasts forever5

And we both know hearts can change6

And it's hard to hold a candle7

In the cold November rain"8

I kept wondering if it was the best that we split. Things just didn't seem the same with him, was it best that we moved on? The pain will be over soon, but it's just sticking with me at the moment. I really wish it wasn't. How come love always has to be so painful? Falling in and out was never my thing.9

"We've been through this such a long long time10

Just tryin' to kill the pain11

But lovers always come and lovers always go12

An no one's really sure who's lettin' go today13

Walking away"14

Is moving on just a cliche? Can it actually happen? I've seen this too many times, what will the next man I see think of me? Will I fall in love again? Love is a funny thing, it just loses it's humor most of the time.15

"If we could take the time16

to lay it on the line17

I could rest my head18

Just knowin' that you were mine19

All mine20

So if you want to love me21

then darlin' don't refrain22

Or I'll just end up walkin'23

In the cold November rain24

Do you need some time...on your own25

Do you need some time...all alone26

Everybody needs some time...27

on their own28

Don't you know you need some time...all alone"29

I guess I can live my life just knowing you were with me. I'm willing to love you back if you love me, but don't be too late. I know how it'll end and it's not pretty. Maybe we need some time away from each other. This might not be the end yet.30

"I know it's hard to keep an open heart31

When even friends seem out to harm you32

But if you could heal a broken heart33

Wouldn't time be out to charm you34

Sometimes I need some time...on my35

own36

Sometimes I need some time...all alone37

Everybody needs some time...38

on their own39

Don't you know you need some time...all alone"40

Are you really willing to leave me? Will you regret it the next day? Know this, I'll always be here. You don't have to love me like you once did, but I think I always will.41

"And when your fears subside42

And shadows still remain43

I know that you can love me44

When there's no one left to blame45

So never mind the darkness46

We still can find a way47

'Cause nothin' lasts forever48

Even cold November rain"49

I guess it's true, nothing does last forever. I've lived with that before, I can live with it now. Maybe there's something blocking our love? Should I just go on?50

"Don't ya think that you need somebody51

Don't ya think that you need someone52

Everybody needs somebody53

You're not the only one54

You're not the only one"55

We all need someone, and if you don't need me, find somebody you need to love. A life without love is nothing at all, and I think we know that. Starting now we should go out and move on, and let's just remember the times we had. That's all that we need.56

    Intriguing.
    I can totally relate to this, and it was beatifully written.
    No grammatical errors as far as I can see...(but i'm really bad at noticing those, lol)
    And a nice even flow. Nice choice of song too.
    I wish you remembered to ask about an artist that wasn't on my list though. You're lucky I know Guns N' Roses, otherwise this might not have counted as an entry.

    Good Luck and thank you for entering!
