tell me what you feel
that it hurts to breathe
that you don't want to see
where we're headed, you and me
tell me it's not over
that we'll have one last chance
one desperate shot
at this desperate romance
tell me the truth,tell me the truth
for once
in this now
the heart wants what the heart wants
it wants and how
a keen ache is worse,i'm told
than a sharp pain
but thoughts of you put me
in that place
again and again
sing of this body
its heart
its mysterious ways
i count myself lucky
it is hard
but i'm unfazed.
