You're standing here,
looking at me,
Your arms around me,
looking straight into my eyes-
right through me.
The tears are threatening to fall,
to slide down my cheeks and form little rivers.
And you tell me not to cry.
"Don't cry for me", you say.
And you kiss away my tears
before they can fall
and hold me just a little tighter.
And I know you cannot stay,
even though my heart screams no
at the thought of you leaving,
leaving again.
"Don't leave again", I whisper,
and my heart is screaming.
Dear God, don't send him away again,
for I don't know when he'll return
and this seperation is harder than
I let everyone see.
And you take my hand and pull me.
We're standing at your car now;
you're still holding my hand.
Hold my hand and walk me through this.
Don't let go just walk me through this.
Yes I'll fall if you let go.
Don't let go.
Don't let go.
But you do.
And my heart falls again.
And just one last touch
is all I really need right now-
to feel that shock of electricity
that I only feel with you.
But you climb into your car now,
and give my hand a kiss,
and drive away,
you're gone again.
You've gone away.
And I know again you cannot stay.
