Have you gone and left me
after all I meant to you?
Can you catch my heart’s blood
as it tears painfully in two?
Can you taste my tears that fall
so sadly from my eyes?
Has your heart grown so cold
that you can look at me and lie?
Can you face this soul you loved
and tell me we’re no more?
Even though love fills your heart,
can you still walk out that door?
And turn you back on all we were
and wipe me from your heart?
Can you live on only memories
as you tear us both apart?
Place your hand upon my breast
and feel the pulse of love.
Can you forget how our souls were as one
as we soared o'er the clouds above?
The fire still burns within our hearts.
Do not walk the path alone.
Together we can reap the harvest
of the seeds of love we’ve sown.
Won’t you take my hand now
and face your fear with me?
Take this step and hold me tight,
and we will be fine again, you’ll see.
