Song for a dead Phoenix
You were the river through my veins,
you had access to my soul;
all the broken pieces of my life
you combined into a whole.
Chorus:
You ran away from us;
I’ll never will know why –
You ran away from me;
you left without goodbye.
You wanted to fly high;
you wanted to be free,
and how was I to know
that it would never be?
Or did you plan to leave
before another I would meet
and the ruins of our love
came tumbling to your feet?
Chorus
I'd given you my all
and thought that it was fine,
but how was I to know
you never would be mine?
Chorus
What were your raging demons;
Why could you never tell,
Or was it me you ran from
Because I knew you all too well?
Chorus
You’ll live within my mind;
your love locked in my heart.
I wanted you to know
our souls will never part.
Chorus
Although our love was short,
the memories will last.
They’re etched into my mind –
Every nuance of our past.
Chorus
