It's tempting how you reach your hand out towards mine
I wish to take hold of it,
But fear if I do the consequences would be too much for me to bear with
I want to go and break free of these restraints
To finally be able to love
To be loved the way I was meant to be loved
I can see in your eyes the warmth
The kindness I so long for
The weight seems to vanish when you are near me.
But I know that is only a trick to lure me in
To get me within your reach
How much longer will you stalk me?
It is time for you to move on...we can never be you and me
I must find happiness elsewhere
Although you're out reached hand towards mine is so very tempting
I wish to take hold of it and finally disappear.
But we know that can never happen
Even if your name brings a smile to my face
Even if I feel safe when you are around
It could never be...
Because we are of two worlds yours the past mine the present
It would be impossible for our dreams to come true...
So although you stretch out your hand to mine
I cannot take it
We must end it here and now because I am moving on without you
I have found someone who I believe I can count on and
I know that our love was strong but death cannot always be there to comfort me.
For I have grown to fear you and although you are very tempting
I cannot go with you
Things will get better
Things will be fine
I no longer need you here by my side.
