I remember when you're pretty eyes
Used to sparkle just for me
But that sparkle and it's magic
Now are just a memory
So much weathered before our joining
Seemed it might be destiny
But even stars one day grow cold
And I don't believe in 'meant to be'
These fleeting memories
Of the love you bear for me
Of all our harmony
Dying in this tragedy
If we could start again
Instead of giving in
If we could try to make it
Take it, break it, don't mistake it
It was never you and I
It was us and we shined bright
Others noticed all around us
Envious or glad they found us
And in our hand to hand
We would make our ever stand
In this life we'd made
Never have to be afraid
Cuz you had me
And I had you
And we would see
Each other through
And hold the shaking
Falling, breaking
Tears that someday come
And once I had realized
You and I found paradise
In each other's eyes and arms
And all our fun
And from sweet serenity
We find this, the tragedy
The bond we make
That cannot break
Please God tell me
There's been some mistake
In our sweet surrender
Some where we lost our forever
And as we fade away
I'll be thinking of the day
You on my door
Not wanting to turn away
Of both us wanting more
Me not knowing what to say
Because I feared this day would come
And all my hope be burned to dust
Wishing I could just be numb
The moment I had learned to trust
And as the symphony
Draws right to the bitter end
Left with misery
Not knowing which way to send
These thoughts that burn my mind alive
What I wouldn't sacrifice
To change your mind and change our
lives
And let our love survive
I'm left choking on the pain
The same hard lesson once again
I can't change the past or destiny
So what's there left for me?
Spinning fast
No place to turn
Will this last
Forever yearn
A shadow right outside the grave
A soul nobody wants to save
I'm not ready for the fall
I'd have given you my all
But in the end it's not my call
And I don't have the where withal
To do this slow dance anymore
Been here too many times before
And whatever I have left to learn
I'm not ready to feel that burn
So let me go and let me rest
And please know I did my best
Keep my love next to your chest
Hate to think I lost this quest
Your beautiful eyes used to sparkle
just for me
Beaming like the morning dawn
Our touch and kiss, such serenity
And somewhere that melody still lingers
on
