STILL
I’ve known you such a long time.
It’s been a lot of years –
We’ve shared each other’s secrets,
Seen each other’s tears.
When two lovers break up, it’s such a bitter pill,
But I could never hurt you still.
Maybe there’s a reason
Two hearts can’t be one,
But we never find out till the race is won.
Now I have inside me spaces I can’t fill,
But I could never hurt you still
Love can die in anger,
Love can die in fear.
How can we restrain deepest feelings
When we’re near?
Anguish, pain, and sorrow have put me through the mill,
But I could never hurt you still
One can find an answer,
Two can find a way,
But only two together know the words to say.
When two hearts tear apart,
Lord, the loneliness can kill,
But I could never hurt you still…
No, I could never hurt you still.
