Maybe just us
The war of words Im waging
If we left no one would fuss

Walking in the dust
Tears turn to flames
I will hold you if I must
I wont always be there to play your games

You are my one and only
I am feeling blue
I am still lonely
Thinking of you

When this is done
I want to you to see
That we've won
Now you can be free

I cant talk to you in my dreams
Wishing you were here will only kill me
My life isnt held up by beams
I can only imagine where you'll be

Good friends get older
The world keeps on turning
While my heart grows colder

The ashes settle and the remains smolder
We left while the Town was Burning.... [comments] => 2 [counter] => 159 [topic] => 34 [informant] => ScribereHabeo [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SongLyrics )
