A Heart Divided

I'm all torn up inside...
My heart is divided
Right down through its center
The pain is agonizing…
I'm desperate now
And don't know what to do…
I'm lost in this desert
And the winds are blowing in all directions…
Got sand all over my eyes
Can't see a thing now
Don't know which way to go…

My heart is broken in two
And I don't know which half to keep
And which to forget
A painful decision it is
Don't know if I can make it…
Don't know if I can get out of this
With my heart in one piece…

They are both so beautiful
They are both so great
They are both so wonderful
They are both so good…
But I know that only one is true
Only one is that life long companion
Only one can mend my heart
And only one can make it whole…

But why is it so hard to decide?
Why is it so hard to choose?
Should I even do this?
Or should I just let my heart go
And follow the way it desires…
But as each day goes by
My heart becomes more and more entangled…
In this web of love and passion
Which one is true and pure?
And which one is but a passing flame?

As mush as I try
I just can't yet decide
At least not just yet…
Maybe time will tell
When time it is
To choose the right way
To choose the right one
And then become whole…

But for now
I'll just keep on this road
With this pain inside
Of a heart divided
Right down through its center

I'm all torn up inside…
And who will heal the wounds…
