Admit To Myself

Admit To Myself By Roy Merritt The air is cold against my skin as I stand here on the street Waiting at the place where you said we should meet But looking at my watch I can see that you are late It dissolves all my dreams confirming my fate And I stand hopelessly silent I don’t know what to do But admit to myself that our love is through Admit to myself its over at last Its died forever had its last gasp Its died forever like my soul within And never will we love each other again What became of our love I fail to understand Why it faded like water rolling over the sand Why like a ghost it disappeared into the night Like a bird it took wing and sailed into flight And I stand hopelessly silent I don’t know what to do But admit to myself that our love is through Admit to myself its over at last Its died forever its had its last gasp Its died forever like my soul within And never will we love each other again I may love another someday down the line I may though now in sorrow and painful decline I may do so or never at all but this pain I’m feelin’ I shan’t ever forestall And I stand hopelessly silent I don’t know what to do But admit to myself that our love is through Admit to myself its over at last Its died forever its had its last gasp Its died forever like my soul within And never will we love each other again So I turn from this spot move slowly down the street Seeing no one my eyes fixed on my feet I don’t want them to see me or tears that I shed Or hear the prayers I’m praying wishing I were dead And I stand hopelessly silent I don’t know what to do But admit to myself that our love is through Admit to myself its over at last Its died forever its had it last gasp Its died forever like my soul within And never will we love each other again So I push on to my home empty cold and dark With a pain like a dagger plunged deep into my heart With tears slowly flowing washing over my face I sit in dread misery in this empty place And I stand hopelessly silent I don’t know what to do But admit to myself that our love is through Admit to myself its over at last Its died forever its had it last gasp Its died forever like my soul within And never will we love each other again Never will we love each other again Never to ever love each other again
