I wish the heartache would go, my love
I hate watching you suffer alone
I wish I could take away all the pain you've ever felt in your life
Maybe your head would become free of tension
If only you'd let me get close
If only you'd let me get deep inside
I know things would be different
If you'd only let me find out
I know you think I'm crazy
And you can't see what I like about you
I don't know myself what it is
I just love you
If only I could see inside your mind
If only I could know your thoughts
It'd make things a lot easier
If only you were near me
I wish the burdens you hold would leave, my love
I can't bare the thought of losing you
I need to know you'll be okay and won't ever go down that road again
I've put my trust in you and I'll push as far as I can go
If only the pain was gone
If only the silence was broken
If only this barrier was down
If only this heart was yours

This is an intense write with an obvious meaning. It is so touching to know someone cares so much for someone else to wish to eliviate their pain.
