Since I held her like a little broken flower And watered her with my tears, She awoke under her very own power And chased away all the fears It has brought me such pleasure and pain All she needs to do is look in my eyes, To become an island in the rain As she breaks down and cries And I would try to catch her from falling So we could stand, and then run away, Why couldn't she hear me calling And why didn't she ever say, That she loved me; If only she loved me |

"It has brought me such pleasure and pain All she needs to do is look in my eyes, To become an island in the rain As she breaks down and cries"... are ya trying to make me cry...this is sadly sweet...really good rhyme flow too... still stalking you...JM She says baby, It's 3am I must be lonely, When she says baby, Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes, Says the rains gonna wash away I believe it. Matchbox20 I love you baby... always.* |
