Your words touch chords deeper in my heart

Than places I knew I had

I want to break down and cry

Whisper in your ear

Hold you in my arms

And have you kiss away my tears

As I fall away from the world

Both arms in the air

Waiting for the appointed angel

To finally come down and rescue me

Before I realize that she's already there

Holding me in her arms.

You touched my soul with your finger tips

And those eyes I can't get out of my head

The voice that constantly haunts me

As I drift off in bed

I want to tear out my hair

And cry out your name

Feel the pain that you caused me

And the hot tears of shame

Because it's nights like these that remind me

Of all that I cannot be

As I wait for you to release me

And finally let me be free -

But my arms won't let go.
