I clearly see anguish written all over your face with black ink, and I see pieces of you scattered before me like shards of glass. I sense your unwillingness... to take yet another chance at love again, but have no fear. I'm here to hold your hand. I promise not to mislead you Never mind who hurt and deserted you You needn't breathe a single word about your pain and heartache; they show through your telling eyes But I'm here to kiss away all your tears So take refuge in my comforting arms; let me in to your heart and allow me to stay forever, I'll glue you back again, broken piece by broken piece If you let me heal you, I'll make you infinitely stronger than ever before I'd fix all the broken pieces of your heart with the sheer power of my love.
