Hold Me

With blurry eyes I see youBeside me smiling in your sleepWhat we both were getting intoWas not ours to keepFeelings that were born to dieA bond bound to the brokenPainful waiting for goodbyeWaiting for a last word spokenHold meJust for another dayHold meUntil the tide of reasonWill sweep our dreams awayI did not mean to hurt youDo you harm in any wayBut you know as good as I doThat I cannot stayWith as many miles between usWe both know this cannot beKiss meAnd then let me goKiss meLike the sun kisses the snowAnd now you’re gone and I move onOn the road I chose to wedI close my eyes and think of youWith “Iris” in my headWe know this cannot beWith as many miles between usBut from now until foreverIn my dreams you’ll be with me
