They Should Know

I'm waiting for the rain to fall and cleanse my soul
Waiting here with open arms for you to make me whole
When will the pain end, and begin to finally fade
I want our paradise to begin now, the perfect love we've made

The tears just fall in an endless stream
Pain of having you not here is enough to make me scream
Time is passing us by, you and I both know it's true
I'm searching inside myself for the most recent traces of you

Please come to me...heal me with the touch of your love and heart
I swear the next time I hold you, I will not depart
The sun is shining down, I can feel it warm on my face
I need you though, I'm begging to feel your wonderful grace

I'm tired of these lies and pleasing everyone but you and me
I know we can't hold on much longer, the truth will set us free
How much longer can this go on, trips to the airports, planes flying high
I know we say we'll be together soon, but im scared it could end in a crashing goodbye

I know I'll never stop loving you, but for how long can the heart wait
We are the writers of our own destiny and fate
Don't let our time pass, I can feel it starting to slip away
I am trying to reserve all the strength and hope I have left today

Night time has fallen, as the stars hang high in the sky
Walking to the window, I look out...asking again the age old question of why?
When two people love each other, why do they wait around for others to say it's alright
Isn't it up to you and me to make our own loves light

Still here we are...neither here nor there
Our hearts still beat with so much love, but do we dare
Do we dare to hope and live this dream that we believe in so
To make our dreams into reality, and have the courage to feel the wind blow

The winds of time and change, in a world where things change everyday
Do you think we can find a way to make this love stay
I think we can, we just have to hold on and never let go
Please remember I love you, and I think it's time everyone else should know



"you can't stop
the rain
from pouring down
can't stop the
world from turning 'round
can't stop me from
loving you
no matter
what you do"

the heart ache is evident in every line..
secrets and distances are the hardest on the heart. Youre right Amy...the truth will set you free...
free to be who you are and live out what is meant to be.
heart-hugs girlie.

Amy darling lil sis of my heart OH MY firstly this is what I was talking about, it’s utterly utterly breathtaking in its beauty. YOUR writing is utterly utterly beautiful, and awesome. The insight with which this has been written is incredible, hearts pain, choices to carry on to let go choices we all have them, but not all of us listen to our hearts when making them. You as you always do write with depth. Without fear or favour you clearly and most beautifully inscribe words of wisdom. I am awed seriously by your ability darling girl. YOU leave me speechless with admiration for the way this is written.

YOU do know I love your writing don’t you? Of course, that is why I always look for your writing. Excellent work darling heart absolutely excellent


Love and warm stuff
As always

(big hugggssssssss) Oh Amy, this is so sadly beautiful, sweet friend, I too feel the same way; it should be only one and the one they love that matters and their destiny will be formed alone, not waiting for others to make apoproval! (sigh) My heart goes out to you, sweet friend, this is wonderfully haunting, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ay, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
