We can walk away but....sometimes love won't let us leave!

From twenty miles away I can't see her bedroom light I don't know if she is sleeping Or...if she stays out all night 'Cause I won't crawl the distance And I won't break down her door Begging her to love me Like she never did before But, from a broken heart away I feel her kisses on my skin Fighting back the teardrops.... Sure wish I had her back again.... To hear those whispers of emotion When love had the final say Well....she knows where to find me I'm just a broken heart away 'Can't see his car parked in her driveway 'Can't see her opening the door I tell myself it just don't matter 'Cause I don't love her anymore But from a broken heart away I feel her kisses on my skin Fighting back the teardrops Sure wish I had her back again To hear those whispers of emotion When love had the final say Well...She knows where to find me I'm just a broken heart away Protected by copyright All rights reserved

Chuck, your lyric is so tenderly poignant in its rational reality and so lost in its lost love longings, a delicate emotional balance that you do so artistically well. You portray heartbreak in such an achingly beautiful way; 'Well...She knows where to find me I'm just a broken heart away' - what exquisite sorrow! My heart breaks for you.. A superbly sad lyric, my talented friend! Warmest wishes.. ~Susan
