Love Dies

Oh, this hurt - this pain won’t end
My heart , my soul, you were my friend
Crumbled autumn leaves turned brown
Blown away without a sound

Silent, my tears, from blue eyes made red
Your love dies with me alone in my bed
Release my love from the prison you’ve made
Release my heart that was yours if you stayed.
