This Love Won'T Die If We Give It One More Try

If we open up and talk
Both of us will stay--not walk
Out of this relationship
That has tumbled and done flips
Back and forth from good to bad
Where's the love we used to have
Somehow it just disappeared
Leaving both of our hearts scared
That it will soon fade to dark
We need to turn back the clock
Finding our way to the place
Where there was always a trace
Of happiness, joy and care
Surrounding us everywhere
Every minute of the day
When did it just start to stray
Leaving us to find out why
This strong love started to die
Slowly erasing the romance
We need to search for evidence
There is something we have missed
Before we finally dismiss
And damage the little bit
Of flame that is small but lit
Wanting to grow big and high
If we give it one more try
So we don't lose what was given
In our lives--we can start livin'
Once again in harmony
If our hearts just look and see
Remembering the happy times
To lose this love would be a crime

Robin, I just saw one of your "vids"? I am not sure. Does it mean that you took your favorite scenes and put them together with the songs? it seemed professional as if the tv show had maybe done it. You know how Glee sometimes does montages of characters paying tribute to them with a song? So do you make up your own? That is very interesting!! also, you have to be like me married all these years -- not that young anymore!! How cool to find someone here who also is not too old for Glee!
