The Gift

As we talked on the phone
in your voice I'd hear your smile
but now we're taking a break
you said it'll only be a while

I hear the pain in your words
I feel your heart breaking
I can see the tears in your eyes
there's no need for faking

you think it's all your fault
I seem to think it's mine
you didn't do anything wrong
I should've stayed in line

we thought it would be a month
but now it's two whole years
seperated this long
can only bring us tears

you're holding my heart still
in pieces shattered again
but once again you've done it
my heart you'll always win

I know that this is hard
it may not even last
but the best time of my life
was the five months that have past

I can positivly walk away
knowing you weren't a waste
I love you way too much
to forget the way you taste

the way you held me close
when everything fell apart
you kissed my forehead gently
before the tears would start

my love for you will last
and weigh the good and bad
the distance will not hurt
the gift we've always had
