MIXED EMOTIONS - 11/12/1999

A look in the eye
A kiss on the cheek
I look down the hall
Then down at my feet

We stand in silence
As tears start to fall
I know I should go
But my heart says no

You whisper softly
As you look in my eyes
"I love you."

I whipe away the tears
And say good-bye.

I walk down the hall
Without looking back
My heart wants to stay
But I know it's too late.

This must be right
This is how it should be
We were not right--
We weren't meant to be.

When I first met you
Such love I did feel.
You opened my eyes
And helped my heart heal

I stand in my room
And look all around
Five years of love
Then five months of pain

Was it all worth it
To be here again?
My mind starts to wonder
My heart starts to ache

If there is only one...
I wonder again
What if it's true?
What if it's you?

I sit down and sigh
And begin to think
I shouldn't be here
This is not right

I have what I wanted--
That is, what I thought I wanted
My heart aches for you
But mind mind deluded me

Now that I see
It's always been you
I've seen it too late
Your heart did not wait

Five years of love
Then five months of pain
Was it all worth it
To be here again?
