I'll ask you not for anything
You kissed me one last time
And we’ve seen our final day
I’ll ask you not for anything
Except remember me this way…
My eyes were lit with happiness
When they were staring back at you
My smile was bright and genuine
Because of all the things you’d do.
My heart was beating wildly
Every time you were around
My body sang with every touch
Even if you heard no sound.
As I drove by your house
I softly blew a kiss
I’ll ask you not for anything
Except remember this….
My heart is always with you
My love is there forever more
And I’ve left a window open
Even though you’ve closed the door.
If we never meet again
and we each find somebody new
there will always be a part of me
that will still belong to you.
I’d have given up
I’d have given up the sunshine
just for the smile on your face
to be the only one for you
that no one can replace.
I’d have given up the moonlight
if I could only be
the only woman that you want
because there’s no one else for me.
I’d have given up the flowers
if I could just believe
as I am laying in your arms
that you will never leave.
I’d have given up the stars
If I could know without a doubt
that I will be the one true love
that you dont want to live without.
I’d have given up the ocean
if I knew it were true
that you love me the same
as the way that I love you.
I’d have given up the blue sky
if I could just pretend
there’s no broken heart inside me
because our story had no end.
ONCE
My heart no longer beats the same
My lonely lips still speak your name
Tears are running down my face
Where once a kiss had left it’s trace.
I can’t lay my head upon your chest
And feel my neck and hair caressed
My hands are bare without yours to hold
Where once the warmth replaced the cold.
I close my eyes with thoughts of you
Wishing that our time weren’t through
The stars seem dim, there’s no moonbeams
Where once we danced in all my dreams
And now nothing is as it was before
I have lost my love forevermore.
My soul is filled with emptiness
Where once I knew true happiness.
NOBODY KNOWS
Nobody knows it’s empty
This smile that I wear
The real one is left in the past
Because you have left me there.
Nobody knows I’m crying
They won’t even see my tears
When they think that I am laughing
I’m still wishing you were here.
Nobody knows I’m lying
When I say I’m moving on
They think that I’ve accepted it
But I can’t believe you’re gone.
Nobody knows it’s different
They think I’m just the same
But still I weaken at the knees
When someone says your name.
Nobody knows it’s painful
They think that I am strong
They say that this won’t kill me
But I wonder if they’re wrong.
Nobody knows I’m praying
That you will change your mind
They think that I had let you go
When you left me behind.
Nobody knows I miss you
They think I feel set free
But I feel like I’m bound with chains
Trapped in this misery.
Nobody knows I want you
They think that I’m alright
But I’m still dancing with you
When I’m dreaming in the night.
Nobody knows I need you
They say I can do it on my own
But they don’t know I’m crying
When I am all alone.
I didn’t think it could
I didn’t think it could
But I found out all too well
That my heart can cry it’s own tears
It’s like an endless well.
I didn’t know it could
But it’s a lesson I can teach
That my hand can cry it’s own tears
Because you’re beyond it’s reach.
I didn’t think it could
But now I’ve come to see
My body can cry it’s own tears
Because you’re not holding me.
I didn’t think it could
But now I surely know
My mind can cry it’s own tears
I guess it hasn’t let you go.
I didn’t think it could
But to this conclusion I must come
My soul can cry it’s own tears
Because I’ve lost my only one.
I always knew they could
Because they do it everyday
My eyes are burning with the tears
Of seeing you go away.
Did you Forget?
Did you forget I need you?
Because I can’t find my way
I built my world around you
I don’t know how to live this way.
Did you forget I want you?
Because no matter who I see
There is no one that compares to you
You’re the only one for me.
Did you forget I crave you?
Because I’m left here all alone
I have no arms to hold me tight
And no one to call my own.
Did you forget you have me?
Because my heart’s still in your hands
I’d give up everything for you
I’m still your biggest fan.
Did you forget I trust you?
Because I gave you all of me
From the first moment that my eyes met yours
You were the only one I see.
Did you forget the good things?
And think the bad would be too rough
Were you afraid of taking risks
Thinking love won’t be enough?
Did you forget to hold on?
I would have stayed right by your side
I wonder where my love has gone
There’s been so many nights I’ve cried.
Did you forget I love you?
Because I do, more than I say
I’m still praying that this all will change
I still miss you every day.
