The Rise and Fall

You and I, we together, rose above And then with a crashing, we together fell You showed me unconditional love But now I live in pure hell You took the time to make me see And you widened my blind eyes So that I could believe that someone could really truly love me Family, friends, and God now put up with my cries I'm left here to live my life without you But do you really think you can just wish me away I'm still in love with you, I and know you feel the same about me too Can't keep those feelings pushed down, they have no where to go because they refuse to stray One day you will come to find My memory you just can't leave behind And that love, true love, is not just how you make it, and it don't have to be blind Open your heart and eyes, it's still me right there in the back of your mind It's my voice that will forever haunt you in your dreams and reality You will never be able to get away from the sounds of a woman that intensely loves only you Time has seemed to have cast a spell over you, break it, break out of your fantasy Once you clearly see it again, you will know what to do Yes you and I, we together, did rise And then with a crashing we did fall Honest unconditional love is never in disguise We can still have each other again, forever we can still have it all
