It was too much I could not ask
Of more than you I had
You were so warm for one short hour
Now all the warmth is gone
Snow is cold my lips are blue
Yet still my heart cries out –
Still I know the you I crave
Is frozen into
Ice
Tag regret
No Regrets?

No regrets
Since I took your hand
And lead you close to me
Since I took your hand
And lead you close to me
No regrets
Since I leaned across
And whispered in your ear
No regrets
For every touch
And all falling tears
No regrets
For every word
That echoed thoughts of you
No regrets
For ever loving you
No regrets
If only this were true
Regret
I never knew how much
I loved you until
You turned your face away
I never knew how much
I needed you until
You turned yourself away
I never knew how much
You meant to me until
You no longer were mine
And now I know how much
I love you
And I know how much
I need you
And I know that your life
Will never be one again
With mine
Hidden
If only
My thoughts were kept
Inside my head
If only
My heart was held
Inside my breast
If only
My words were silent
Inside my mind
If only
My smile never faltered
From my face
If only
My eyes had sparkled
Never melting tears
If only
My hands held flowers
Behind my back
Perhaps then
Perhaps
I would be the one
Perhaps I would be
The one
