I’d give up forever to see you
I would stay for all of time
I’d give anything to feel your touch
Because somehow you’d feel mine
You’re the closest to any paradise
I may ever be able to feel
I taste this moment and breathe you in
I know in my heart this is real
I can’t fight these tears when you’re gone
They overflow as the body weeps
I’d bleed just to know this is real
Without you I can’t seem to sleep
I don’t want the world to seep in
I don’t think that they’d understand
Everything’s tainted and broken
But not if you know who I am
This moment of truth I have found
Is hidden in all of our lies
All of this is so surreal
I would die just to know I’m alive
For as long as you know me, I’ll stay
Exhale so I can breathe you in
I’ll hold you here ‘til lungs collapse
You keep me free from sin
Your love is all that I am
I have no value without your touch
And as long as you’re with me, I’m whole
Your voice is my only rush
Your eyes burn into my soul
You see me like no one else can
Nothing else could feel this real
Nothing can be this good again
Stay here, let’s waste away
I’ve waited for you ever long
If I beg you to stop, please don’t
When I say I can’t do this, I’m wrong
I’m only scared of myself
I only trust me when I’m in your arms
And I don’t want to miss you tonight
With you I feel safe from harm
So don’t ever leave me, I plead
Life without you is too tough
Hold me close and don’t let go
Forever just isn’t enough.

you ever seen the film city of angels? or hurd the song Iris by goo goo dolls? this is evry similer
"And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
And you bleed just to know you're alive
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
(break and solo)
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am"
there the lyrics
not trying to say you have copyed it [Just incase ufink thats what im implying] i was just saying it is very simler=]
but very nice

Beautiful love story, very touching, very real. My favorite stanza:
"This moment of truth I have found
Is hidden in all of our lies
All of this is so surreal
I would die just to know I’m alive".
Now, that sounds like true love, Cindy!
