You were always there
so far away,
yet so close to me
God only knows
how I tried
to open your eyes
but you were asleep,
like a star out of reach.
So I go back and return
to this scene
one chance in a million
as falling stars go.
In my mind
I try to live without you
but deep in my heart
I can’t let you go.
Remember
for me
this man
you once knew,
and I
will forgive
what your heart
can not do.
I see you dancing
and spinning
on diamond lit
floors.
The past
falling behind
as you open
these doors.
But hey!
That’s just a dream
and I am a dreamer.
If only
you could see
what I
feel is true
this would be
but a fraction
of what I see
in you.
Help me to live
to live once again.
Leave
all these shadows
that scare up
the wind.
See me clearly
and learn to believe
that love
goes beyond
what eyes
cannot see.
Search in your heart
you will find me.
