Waking up

Bereaved

Bereft

Making sure you're there

The heart explores

When left unchecked

Off limits

Anywhere

 

When you gave your reasons

You just told me what I knew

Dealing in departure

Another dream of losing you

Another dream

Of losing you

 

You will be

Someone else's

And I will be no one's

Stripped of all

My defences

And barely

Anyone

The heart explores

When left unchecked

All across the map

Waking up

Bereaved

Bereft

Having somehow

Made it back

 

I can't afford

To need you like I once did

I can't afford

To be careless with the friendship

It's a balancing act

Not to lose too much

Everyone knows there's love and there's love

Everyone knows there's love and there's love

 

You can't make yourself

Melt to another's touch

Everyone knows there's love and there's love

Everyone knows there's love and there's love
