Tell Me, My Love

Close your eyes for just one second
And tell me what it is you see.

Cover your ears for just one second
And tell me what it is you hear.

Forget about me for just one second
And tell me if it hurts.


For when I close my eyes
Your image is what I see.

For when I cover my ears
Your voice floats through my mind.

And when I forget about you, for even a second
It hurts worse than pain itself.
