Turn Away

Is it my heart I break?
When I give and you take,
But what if I said no, 
And turned away? 
It hurts too much.
You say I’m so cold,
And I agree, 

But let me tell you I’d always give my heart to you,
I feel our memories slipping away.
I’ll try to hang on to them as long as I can.
But you fell through my arms.
I couldn’t save myself,
But more importantly I could not save you.

All I can see now is fading memories,
Of times we used to be happy,
But I feel our time now is evaporating.

I wasent enough for you to love.
