Lay It Down

She stays up at night Fearing he doesn't love her anymore He goes on with his day Thinking of her but not knowing how she feels Their small, quiet life is shaking on its stage But nobody notices as they walk by Till someone steps down from her imperfect world She knows she's seen it before and sets it straight
How can you walk away from your troubled space From the quiet moments of passion and those of doubt How can you care when you've come so close to breaking And the one you want to lay your problems down on Is too far away to hear you whisper his name
She gets through the gloom By reminding herself that he loves her It's been one of those days She removes herself from cold reality Suddenly his voice is heard in the silence He whispers imaginary promises And it soothes the pain in her hand-me-down heart But all she really wants is just to be held
How can you walk away from those tired spaces From the sweetest moments of love and those of fear How can you leave when you've just come to love that life And the one you need is nowhere to be found now She doesn't know that in your sleep you call her name
You must be so much stronger than I thought Even though you swear you can't take any more Open up your world before they take it all While someone's dying for love, someone's living for it
Don't you dare walk away from those tired spaces From the precious moments of love and caring How could you turn from the one you depend on The one you want to lay your troubles down on You're never too far to give them what they need

Dee,
This is soooo amazingly beautiful that I don't know what to say. I'm speechless. And you know me, it's once in a blue moon that I finally shut up. I love this. Keep up the good work. And stop letting your heart get broken!
Jaime. (lol... I almost spelt my name wrong!! That'd be silly of me!) |
