You said that you loved me, You said that there was no one else, Now I find that you have lied to me If only to protect me from myself. This is my heart, Do you see it? This is it here in my hand It's been bruised and battered and torn apart But yet, I gave it to you In the hope of a new start. And what did you do? Professed your love for me and my heart Said that you couldn't live without us But yet. . . but yet. . . The dance is over, and now he's come back To take his place as your partner But I took you away, I sailed with you on The dance floor, Swept you away on a wind of music and melody Yes, my love, I took you to places that you had never seen And will never see again As he dances with you off into the sunset Remember me and never forget Never forget that our steps were in time and that ours was indeed A dance of love. . . ------------------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

This is a poignant piece, Sven. I liked this expecially... "This is my heart, Do you see it? This is it here in my hand" ...chanson~ ~"Music, when soft voices die, Vibrates in the memory..." P.B. Shelley~ |
