Lyrics and Music by James Rodrigues

lyrics

I looked into her eyes
The moment was paralyzed
by fear, by scent

I learned to feel again
Pouring over a book
an empty place to look
for life, for truth

I couldn't find the line
that meant so much to me
It almost set me free
to fly, to grow,
I realized what I know

Now I can't return
these memories that burn
conceal, they rot,
what piece of heart was left

In the wake of this wave
drowns the thing I crave
The warmth, the touch,
Your face on my mind

If you let me in
Maybe we could begin
To heal, to try,
despite my foolish pride

That led us down to this
Without even a kiss
Good-bye, hold on
This has gone on too long
