A Haunting Love

Was it you
Who looked me right in the eyes
And said that you
Would never see me cry

Was it me
Who reached out for your hand
And said that we
Would never say goodbye

In between we've lived
Through heaven
And burning hell
Refusing to let this die

When one was in pain
Another would wish
To take their place
To soothe the hurt, or just try

Would we have thought
That when no one else
Could or would understand
The stroy behind why we cry

When all we knew
Feels all so temporary
Fragile tenderness
Like a bird waiting to fly

Put out your heart
And rest your hands
On our ethereal love
And let the world pass on by

And remember
It was you, and it was me
Who said, hush now
This truth is only yours and mine
