They told me love don't last forever
|
Now I understand
|
To think that only yesterday
|
You held me in your hands
|
And I became a woman
|
And you became the world, to me
|
I was lost, no dream to high
|
No star to far apart
|
Your carpet ride holding me
|
You led me to believe that I was yours, yours
|
I swallowed every lie
|
And you will cry when I'm away, on your own, like me
|
when I was yours
|
|
I could live my life without you, that is not enough
|
I can't lie awake believin' you don't want my love
|
Alone in my desire
|
And still the fire burns, my friend
|
I was there. I loved you well
|
Though we are far apart, I love you still
|
I relive the very moment when you called me yours, yours
|
Don't let me die inside
|
Save me from the memories, the hours that I cried
|
Say to me that I am yours, yours, mine eternity
|
And you will cry when I'm away
|
On your own, like me, when I was yours
|
Yours, yours, don't let me die inside
|
Save me from the memories, the hours that I cried
|
Say to me that I am yours, yours for eternity
|
And you will cry when I'm away
|
The hours that I cry
|
Say to me that I am yours, yours
|
Don't let me die inside
|
