The first time I saw you I was in awe
You were smoking a pipe,
And looked so cool
I didn't think you would approach me first,
but you did...

When you called my name, I put on my shoes and jumped the fence.
I lied to my mom and ran after you.
When we came to the river, we sat and watched the bright hue
you locked your eyes with mine,
and I could already feel your...

All those days had gone by, with you toying with my heart
Making it skip and jump around, and then crushing it in your arms
Without a second thought.

Eventually though, I did it. I told you.
I felt so happy to find out you did too ...
Unfortunately, luck wasn't on my side
And things came crashing down like a tide
I wish that things could change
What could I have said to make it last a bit longer?
It was so unexpected, too..
Why'd it have to be you?

As I saw you jump with ease
Falling just as my heart did
Where did it all go wrong?
C'mon, don't leave me please...

I knew you were angel
I told myself you would fly
That you'd fly right to me

Here I am holding you in my arms,
The last time it might happen...
Your blood running down my hands
Dying faint words, dying faint hum

You told me to be happy...
But how could I be happy if you are my happiness
You tell me to move on,
But how can I when you were my stamina
You tell me to be strong,
But you were my strengh

You tell me it will be alright,
But alright is when I'm with you
You tell me to go love
But I still love you...
