I held the book so tightly in my hands,
|
I saw your picture, heard you call my name
|
It was strange I could not look away
|
I had to be there, I wanted to go
|
|
You gave me no reason
|
you gave me no warning
|
But I was with you,
|
by your side
|
Give me the strength, so I can help you
|
And I can be strong now, they don't frighten me
|
|
It's written in the book
|
|
The sun is hotter than before
|
But inside it's cold, I wonder why
|
But if the fire within your heart can beat the storm
|
Well I believe we can make it right
|
|
It's time now
|
to show our feelings
|
Looking through you
|
your heart's empty
|
Whatever happened to you, you can't change it,
|
Nowhere to run to, please, oh please don't let me down
|
|
But wait a minute I don't understand
|
it's getting stronger, hold my hand
|
Don't want to leave you I don't want to go
|
But I'm a' losing all control
|
Can't you see me I'm slipping away
|
I can only stay if you've the will to keep me here
|
Oh Lord
|
|
It's written in the book
|
|
I held the book so tightly in my hands
|
Saw your picture, heard you call my name
|
Oh, and even though we never, never touched
|
I keep waiting for you just the same
|
|
La la la la la la la la la la la
|
La la la la la la la la la la la...
