I Never Want To Make You Cry

I never want to make you cry. Sat alone; the way it has to be. Surely this is the only way, For you to be free, From the burden and hurt, For that's all I can feel; I'm sad that I still feel the pain, That you must never feel. I have to leave, I need to weep, To find my release and let you be free, From the pain that I feel; Help, I need a release. I need your sympathy and your empathy. For the tears I weep, in my misery, Are the things that draw you, close to me And the pain I feel is killing me. For this woman I see, is all that I need, To be with me; to make me happy. But I can't be too close, or I just might love you. I want you to kiss away my tears And let me just hold on to you. I want to send you to sleep, all happy and peaceful And let me know that I lay, With one of the beautiful people. For my love I am enamored, By your deep misty eyes. So I will wait until you fall asleep And simply kiss you goodnight. I gently say I love you And hold you close the whole night through. Looking forward to the moment, I wake up to you.
