Sacrifices I’d give up the world for you The gold at the end of the rainbow The last leaf falling from the tree A last day on earth to say goodbye Everything that keeps me safe I’d wrap my soul up in a box With a transparent bow And silver wrappings My telltale heart would beat inside I’d spend the rest of my days crying for you Roam the earth without a place by your side Jump into an abyss with nothing to catch me And only want you to help me up I’d walk through the dark for years To find you at the other end But here I’d find my gift on the ground Sitting unopened in the midnight air "All you need is love..." -The Beatles |

I can really relate... But here I’d find my gift on the ground Sitting unopened in the midnight air These last two lines are wrenching, I can feel your pain twisting round in them. Well done! Caroline the only man worth your tears will never make you cry |
