Distant Love And Goodbye

by manic moments   Jun 14, 2006


How true words ring
When they are spoken from the heart
But why didn't anyone know
That this little show wasn't going to start?

We talked about what ifs
We talked about the future
We didn't know what would happen
All this hope we could nurture

We said little things
Warming each other with meanings
Where we ever going to go far?
Would we ever express these feelings?

We cried when the other was crying
We swore never to part
But it was too late
You already took my heart

This distance between us
The physical separation, daunting
I can't leave you in my dreams
Your face is haunting

We had to say goodbye
When all the little fights happened
The tears that you will never see
And my hopes that are flattened

We are broken because of distance
We feel obligated to never stray
But each and every time there's a party
I would go down on my knees and pray

I am merely human
It is hard to resist
Temptation is great
And easy to persist

Words are plaguing me so
My heart is heavy and so be my head
If I didn't know better, if I wasn't so sure
I could have sworn that I was dead

We once spoke to each other
With an Old English flair
With all the words of beauty
You told me that you would always care

You called me "My Lady"
You would flatter me immensely
But I truly did not know
How my heart borrowed itself so densely

I ponder your words once more
I listen to them in my head
But I truly do not know how
My feelings could be interpreted as dead

We had to say goodbye
Distance prevailed over our love
I don't know how I survived all that time
All these unwanted feelings to shove

I question not our hope
But our time that was non existent
I question not our happiness
But the reason why we resisted

We are at the end
When we cannot hide our weariness anymore
I can't help leaving you some tears
As I walk away through life's door
