The touch of lips the close of eyes
|
They matter more than you surmise
|
I hide it all in secret boxes
|
Until tomorrow when we first meet
|
I watch you fade before my eyes
|
I can’t take it, but I won’t look away
|
Maybe the fires that feel so cold,
|
They won’t completely die away
|
|
I don’t want to, I don’t want you
|
I don’t want you to forget
|
I don’t want to, I don’t want you
|
I don’t want you to forget
|
|
I may not let you see my pain
|
I may not speak hard words in anger
|
To you maybe it isn’t really strange
|
You being loved by a stranger
|
I won’t give you up just yet
|
I will come calling at your door
|
Ours is a home we can’t get to anymore
|
|
I don’t want to, I don’t want you
|
I don’t want you to forget
|
I don’t want to, I don’t want you
|
I don’t want you to forget
|
|
Behind your eyes there is a distance
|
I ask you if you’d like to dance
|
You mistake me for a healer
|
I’m just a desperate man stealing one last chance
|
