sit there, not knowing
wondering what youve done
placing blame where...
it does not belong

the tears streak down your face
mascarea, no longer straight.
ill wipe your eyes ten thousand times
before ill leave you there

a gentle kiss on your forehead
to reassure you im here
and that with me theres
nothing more to fear

i remember the time
when nothing was wrong
i remember the place
but forget the song

if for one moment,
i could take all your pain
just so you can sleep.
           (away from this)
if for one moment,
i could make you happy
just so you can seap
           (into bliss)
if for one moment,
i could remove the weight (you wear)
just so you can leap
           (one last time)

if for one moment.
i could do more.
