SONG OF A FRAGILE SOUL

Wouldn't have walked in that place
Had I known what it would cost me
Or my heart which I chose to risk anyway
Because I believed you were worth risking.

Wouldn't have looked into your eyes
Had I known you had the power to melt
The rocky barrier my heart had built
But I couldn't just ignore those sparkles.

Wouldn't have smiled back at you
Had I known that was the start of falling
For someone I knew would be out of reach
The moment that situation ends.

But I'm just a fragile soul
Trapped in a broken girl
Both of us wishing
You'd glue the shattered pieces together

So please reach out to me
Whisper into my ears you care for me
Sing your way to my heart
Tell me you won't just let this go...

Shouldn't have considered "us"
If I knew this would pass
As fast as the runners run
Or the time when we're having fun.

Shouldn't have let you in my mind
Lingering there every tick of the clock's hand
If I knew there'd be no more chance
For me to see that sparkle in your eyes
Or the smile that gave my heart a warmth.

But I'm just a fragile soul
Trapped in a broken girl
Both of us wishing
You'd glue the shattered pieces together

So please reach out to me
Whisper into my ears you care for me
Sing your way to my heart
Tell me you won't just let this go...

I know you believe this won't do
So if you wish to let go
It's okay to do so
Just let me tell you I love you
And I'll love you
Until it doesn't hurt no more
To let you go...
