"There Goes My Heart..."
-thelonelyone
She's got a dream inside her eyes, A dream that dies a little when she cries. And he knows better than to speak, Knows better than to notice that she is weak. The dream is streaking down her sad face, Tears that try but fail to erase Everything in her heart and soul That has left her empty, left her with a hole... He would hold her for a million years If only that would stop her tears. But he knows she must do this on her own. He walks away, hating himself for leaving her alone...
She's tired of getting nowhere fast, Tired of loves that do not last. And he knows he would rather lose his soul Than to leave her empty and wounded with no love to hold... She needs someone to catch her when she falls, Someone who can save her from it all. He would reach out if he did not think He would cause her tattered little heart to sink. He would rather choke on his emotions, Than to watch her drown in this cruel ocean.
He'll walk away to keep from tearing her apart... And when he's gone she will whisper, "There goes my heart..."
