For many years I loved you
Keeping my heart close at hand.
Since then I couldn't stand
Watching you run again and again
For fear of loving another man,

And I hoped I would feel you
If only to heal you
Yet you took it all away
And won't give it back.

And I know why you cry and all the reasons why you can't stop.
Praying for an end to the heart attacks and sudden drops.

So when the world comes crashing down,
You will see me once again
With a life near death
Loving you with a smile
Forever beyond the end
