Tell me...
What do you do when love walks away?
How do you try and convince them to stay?
What to do when the pain cuts this deep?
When it hurts so bad that you can't sleep?

I held my head in the air with pride.
As a peace of my heart slowly died.
Convince my self I didn't care.
That my love was no longer there.

What do you do when love walks away?
How do you try and convince them to stay?
What to do when the pain cuts this deep?
When it hurts so bad that you can't sleep?

I cried at night as my heart broke.
Couldn't talk I always choked.
My knees weak, my hand shaking.
As my spirit was breaking.

Tell me...
What do you do when love walks away?
How do you try and convince them to stay?
What to do when the pain cuts this deep?
When it hurts so bad that you can't sleep?

Well done.
Love needs no convincing...
We heal for a reason...

Welcome to Passions, ALBERT.
I don't have any good answers either.
Guess you just sigh and be glad you recognized Love.

I have only one idea
If you hold to tight love will die
If you want a chance to get the back
open your arms and let them fly
Watch them fly wait and see
If they dont come back i t wasn't meant to be

I really hate this advice but it is all the advice i have

Take a good look at my face
Well, don't my smile look out of  place
look a little closer its easy to trace
The tracks of my tears

Welcome to Passions Albert.
Al I can say is to keep writing the hurt out.
It does get easier with time.
Very well done
and I look forward to seeing more of your
work.
