Maybe there is a reason That I remember the curve of your smile And the sound of your laugh Or the way my hands traced Over your face To just know your skin To feel the laughter lines I had created You knew how to warm me with your body And your heart Still I'm remaining cold With my guard fiercely in place There are barriers between us Preventing the words That are ready to bleed from my veins Or anything to break through That might save this Those three words you spoke Set off the smoke That put our flame out As my mind filled with doubt Bringing out chapter to an end I guess you're still a friend

Laughter Lines
Maybe there is a reason That I remember the curve of your smile And the sound of your laugh Or the way my hands traced Over your face To just know your skin To feel the laughter lines I had created You knew how to warm me with your body And your heart Still I'm remaining cold With my guard fiercely in place There are barriers between us Preventing the words That are ready to bleed from my veins Or anything to break through That might save this Those three words you spoke Set off the smoke That put our flame out As my mind filled with doubt Bringing out chapter to an end I guess you're still a friend
