Love

Love, rescue me

I was down on my knees under a full moon

Looking over all that I've been through

And I send a wish to the sky above

Your hand was sweet as a velvet glove

I'd better give up now than going on

Is too late ... or too wrong ... ?

I'm looking away, my eyes swollen and red

They will drink all the tears that I shed

I've never been living before I met you

I can't live without sharing something true

I remember the days it was so easy

You were my white pearl stolen from the sea

But you ran to the arms of another

And I knew we'd never be together

You were the thing I wanted the most

The only way to escape from my ghosts

I felt something I thought I'd never feel again

I stepped out of a pouring rain

But you buried your heart so deep

Please let me die singing

I don't want ever to cry again

I'm all alone facing my pain

I wanted you and nothing more

But now we lie together

I know my words are making you smile

But you could have made me do so for a while

I gave up my soul to this light

I could sell the world just to pick up your whispers

But it's so cold it'd make me shiver

I was running from the darkness of my life

This could be the day that I died
