i'll take the tear

don't speak

seal your lips. please don't say a word

maybe i won't remember the words i have not heard. i see that you're in love

i know it's not with me. but i don't want the truth to haunt my memory. it's never too late to relight the fire

it's never stopped burning for me. the flame

it never died inside of me. how is it now that i can tell you i love you

how is it only now that it's too late. what can i do?

the love that we had is torn in two. so you take the smiles from all of our years. i'll take the tears. i sit and reminisce of times that we once shared. you gave me more than love. but never thought i cared. my feelings were all for you. although it didn't show. i only told you on the day you let me to go. now i realize that you're no longer mine. but i'm hoping that the pain will ease in time. although you're leaving

i won't say goodbye. because i know you're here with me inside.
