Sat alone; the way it has to be.
Surely this is the only way,
For you to be free,
From the burden and hurt,
For that's all I can feel;
I'm sad that I still feel the pain,
That you must never feel.
I have to leave, I need to weep,
To find my release and let you be free,
From the pain that I feel;
Help, I need a release.
I need your sympathy and your empathy.
For the tears I weep, in my misery,
Are the things that draw you, close to me
And the pain I feel is killing me.
For this woman I see, is all that I need,
To be with me; to make me happy.
But I can't be too close, or I just might love you.
I want you to kiss away my tears
And let me just hold on to you.
I want to send you to sleep, all happy and peaceful
And let me know that I lay,
With one of the beautiful people.
For my love I am enamored,
By your deep misty eyes.
So I will wait until you fall asleep
And simply kiss you goodnight.
I gently say I love you
And hold you close the whole night through.
Looking forward to the moment,
I wake up to you.
