Does it fade with your memories
And tarnish with time?
Is it locked in a secret place
In the back of your mind?
When love has gone and you don't know why
Or who's to blame, who didn't try
The question continues to burn your soul
The mystery remains untold
A quiet storm of tears rolls down your cheek
You have no answers, no words to speak
It haunts you in the midnight hour
The longing still holds the power
Where does love go when it dies?
Does it disappear or don a disguise?
~~
Where does love go when it dies?
One heart stops beating, and one cries
You live in pain and wonder why
Why did one heart have to die?
Two as one so beautiful and true
Without love what can one do?
Pain and sorrow left behind
Love is real and never blind,
One left happy and one remains sad
Love is glorious not to be bad
Where does love go when it dies?
Or does it live on in another's eyes?
Time so short we have not much
Love so gentle as a child's touch,
Maybe love never really dies
it continues on more than we know
Flowers die, and then they grow.
