Rose petals falling to the floor
From blinding heights
You know this is something
I have never felt before
Flickering flames against the fan
You see what I'm holding in my hand
My heart in a parcel
Melting to sand
There were times in my life of lives
I couldn't sleep at night
I'd lay awake and think about you
And then I'd sleep and dream about you
And I awoke... with an angel lying next to me
The day the night stole you away from me
I sat alone in misery
Your face would haunt me through the years
Believe me, as I shed skin, I'd shed more tears
And all the time I really loved you
Pushing you away
I lost more than a mind can conceive of
Is this the stuff that make believe's of?
A small heart only pretends to die
I damn near killed myself with the lie
I used hate to mask my love
I came so close to killing myself
And all the time I really loved you
thinking you were lost and I was found
But I KNEW someday we would meet again
The song would echo and rebound
I cried to God to send her to me
My heart was slowing breaking
I knew she'd come and see things through
I never knew it was to be you
And all the time I really loved you
More than I have ever loved anyone
I thought about you every day
For countless years on end
If you ever doubt my love for you
Or think I've loved another more
Look into my eyes and stare
and you will find your answer there
