They Called It Love

Perpetual visions of new love's demise,
You don't turn away or feign surprise,
Perpetual beginnings of rainbows and lies,
And a heart of all hearts, remembers and dies,

Perpetual phone calls that don't really exist,
His head had good judgment, but the heart can't resist,
Perpetual longing without a cruel twist,
We don't deserve it so we weren't missed,

Perpetual dancing with devils and doves,
There's more to life, but she's all you think of,
Perpetual heartache, your gift from above,
Nobody called it that, they called it love.
