I never want to make you cry

I never want to make you cry.

 

 

Sat alone; the way it has to be.

Surely this is the only way,

For you to be free,

From the burden and hurt,

For that's all I can feel.

I'm sad that I still feel the pain,

That you must never feel.

 

 

I have to leave, I need to weep,

To find my release and let you be free,

From the pain that I feel;

Help, I need a release.

I need your sympathy and your empathy.

 

 

For the tears I weep, in my misery,

Are the things that draw you, close to me

And the pain I feel is killing me.

For this woman I see, is all that I need,

To be with me; to make me happy.

 

 

But I can't be too close, or I just might love you.

I want you to kiss away my tears

And let me just hold on to you.

I want to send you to sleep, all happy and peaceful

And let me know that I lay,

With one of the beautiful people.

 

 

For my love I am enamored,

By your deep misty eyes.

So I will wait until you fall asleep

And simply kiss you goodnight.

I gently say I love you

And hold you close the whole night through,

Looking forward to the moment,

I wake up to you.
