Release Me
I held your warmth as the sun fled from the horizon
And I saw your face shine as the ocean captured your smile
Later I watched you fade away into nothing like a dying rose
As I counted every single fallen petal as they began falling on the floor
Then I felt a silent breeze and watched it carry them all away
I reached out to catch the very last one, but apparently I was too late
At that very moment my world had a hole in it and my skies turned to black
Time no longer existed, because if it did I would turn the hands of time back
Because I could spend eternity with you in my arms in just one single day
And I would hold onto forever, but in a blink of an eye that day has gone away
Now nothing remains but the scent of the rose and a dream of what it use to be
Nothing is left of me anymore, but a man who wants to believe in that dream
Your holding my heart as it melts in your hands
when I close my eyes your all I can see
I thought that I could let go, but Im not so sure anymore
So would you open your hands and Baby please.......... Release me
Release me.......
