Keep Me Alive

I was staring at pictures

pictures of you today

its been awhile since you went away

you said you had to leave

had to walk out the door for now

but you will be back again one day

I hope its true

I really hope its true



If you leave my side

something inside me

will have died

because its you

that keeps me alive

the thought of you keeps me alive



I look in the mirror

look at my lonely reflection

its been dead for awhile now

lost the color of my complection

Are you still coming back to me?

I want the safety of your arms

I need your protection

I hope your coming back

I hope you come back to me



If you leave my side

something inside me

will have died

because its you

that keeps me alive

the thought of you keeps me alive



now I am turning pages

from these different stages

I have passed through alone

its foolish to wait so long for you

just for you to come home

I wait for a letter

calls on the phone

but I am alone



If you leave my side

something inside me

will have died

because its you

that keeps me alive

the thought of you keeps me alive



If you leave my side

something inside me

will have died

because its you

that keeps me alive

the thought of you keeps me alive



keep me alive....
