| Rebuild a Heart |
| I got past your guarded wall, and found my way to your side, You only smiled a sad smile, as I asked what it is you hide; You take me by the hand, and lead me up to the tall tower, I will finally know the real you, see the sources of your power. I brace myself for this great wonder, the place from which you start, You open the keep and stand aside, to reveal your fractured heart; You turn to walk away, with your head bowed hiding the tears, I slip my arms around you, and promise to take away your fears. I remind you how much I love you, that I am only here to give, You want to really believe this, needing so much again to live; You have heard this line before, there's no more of you to take, I turn you, look into your eyes, giving no defense for your sake. I hold out my hand and ask, "Will you take this one more chance? You follow me across the floor, as I lead you in a silent dance; You forget about the haunted past, and allow yourself to feel, I hold you a little tighter, a fragment of your heart begins to heal. I lean in even closer, to whisper the words of your favorite song, You give me an audible sigh, safe in my arms as I carry you along; You begin to think it so, perhaps together we can rebuild a heart, I know a dance isn't much to go on, but at least it is a good start |
