I'll Take the Tears

Don't speak, seal your lips,

please don't say a word

maybe I won't remember the words I have not heard

I see that you're in love, I know it's not with me

but I don't want the truth to haunt my memory

It's never too late to relight the fire

it never stopped burning for me

the flame, it never died inside of me

How is it now that I can tell you I love you

How is it only now that it's too late

What can I do, the love that we had is torn in two

so you take the smiles from all of our years and I'll take the tears

I sit and reminisce, of times that we once shared

you gave me more than love

but never thought I cared

my feelings were all for you

althogh it didn't show

I only told you the day you let me go

It's never too late to relight the fire

it never stopped burning for me

The flame, it never died inside of me

How is it now that I can tell you, I love you

How is it only now that it's too late

what can I do, the love that we had is torn in two

so you take the smiles from all of our years

and I'll take the tears

Now I realise that your not mine

but I'm hoping the pain will ease in time

although your leaving, I won't say goodbye

because I know your here with me inside

How is it now that I can tell you i love you

how is it only now that it's too late

What can I do the love that we had is torn in two

so you take the smiles from all of our years

and I 'll take the tears
