Put My Heart to Sleep


I wait on the bridge for a last goodbye

Tell my eyes not to weep
Let this pain no longer seep
Deep inside my soul
Put my heart to sleep
All my love is yours to keep
Leaving me a broken doll

I have been forsaken
All my dreams taken
Dashed on rocks of fallacy
Left alone to bleed
I am despairs seed
Fallen into passions slavery

And as you have left me empty
Anguish now comes to fill me
To remaked this abandonned slave
Your tribute in love's watery grave

Too late for hope
Too late for love
Too late for life
