[Verse]

In the depths of my despair, I'm drowning in pain,
Barbara, my love, lost in a love's refrain.
The echoes of your laughter haunt my sleepless nights,
A love unrequited, tearing my heart with its might.

[chorus]
Barbara, why can't you see?
The tears I've shed, the agony within me.
A love that's one-sided, aching and blue,
Barbara, my love, I'm still in love with you.

[Verse 2]
I've watched you from a distance, as you danced in the rain,
But my love for you, Barbara, is destined in vain.
Your eyes, so captivating, draw me in like a spell,
But my heart's been shattered, and only time will tell.

[chorus]
Barbara, why can't you see?
The tears I've shed, the agony within me.
A love that's one-sided, aching and blue,
Barbara, my love, I'm still in love with you.

[Verse]
I've dreamed of holding you close, feeling your touch,
But reality reminds me I don't mean that much.
I'm just a ghost in your world, a shadow unseen,
While you move on freely, my heart torn at the seams.

[Verse 4]
Every word left unspoken, every secret I keep,
In this love unreturned, I silently weep.
Barbara, my love, I'll hold you in my dreams,
For in reality, love's not what it seems.

[chorus]
Barbara, why can't you see?
The tears I've shed, the agony
