You tried to explain but I couldn't hear it was as if your words were my tears.

Now Playing Keep You

 

Such a beautiful song and beautiful voice. This song really touched me.

I can relate to the words, there is someone in Second Life that I have said good bye to and I miss him every day. I will always treasure the love and laughter we shared and I will never forget him.

That being said, we must all move on. Treasure the good times and learn from our mistakes. There is no use hanging onto something that is past tense.

 

Lyrics

We said goodbye. Tried our hand at magic.

But we couldn't make us disappear.

Not a day goes by I don't wish I had you.

So in a way, I'm glad you're still here.

It's a bitter sweet victory.

Lovin' the ghost in front of me.

 

Now I can't laugh, can't cry.

And I can't run, can't hide.

 

What do I gotta do?

What do I gotta do to keep you?

What do I gotta do to keep you from doing this to me?

 

I wrote a couple of notes.

One in love, one in anger.

They're lying there dying in the dresser drawer.

Lived louder than my voice. Struggled through a stranger.

He loved me until I loved you even more.

It's a bitter sweet victory.

Knowing someone else wanted me.

 

Now I can't laugh, can't cry.

And I can't run, can't hide.

 

You get used to the pain, and numb to the sting

Till you can't feel anything.

 

You tried to explain, but I couldn't hear it.

As if your words were my tears.

Flowing freely, warm and quiet.

From the edges of my eyes and my ears.

Then all that disappears.

 

Now I can't laugh, can't cry.

And I can't run, can't hide.

 

Now I can't laugh, can't cry.

And I can't run, can't hide.

 

What do I gotta do?

What do I gotta do to keep you?

What do I gotta do to keep you from doing this to me?

Done
