Just before the lights went out
We sat up and talked about
All the things that we would be
I just wanted him to be with me
But he had a mind of his own
And he did not mind being alone
Left me there in our little world
Left me there like a little girl
He said, `Don`t get hung up;
Hang ups will get you down`
He said, `Don`t look back;
Look up and then look around`
Around that time I was feeling high
Like I never had to try
To kick myself up out of bed
Kick these worries out of my head
He said, `It`s better this way;
One day you`ll understand`
He said, `I`m leaving today`
And he let go of my hand
I know that I`ll never see him again
Not the way the same way that I saw him then
I know that when I get back on my feet
I will walk away from misery
What do you say when it`s all been said
How do you feel when it`s all been felt
Where do you go when it`s all gone
And you don`t care enough to carry on
I say close your eyes
Look down deep inside
Someone is there for you
Someone who cares for you
I know it`s easier to say than do
Easier to look away than see it through
I know it`s easier to think than feel
Easier to make it up than make it real
Oh it`s hard to love, oh it`s hard not to love
Oh it`s hard to love, oh it`s hard not to love
Oh now, take me there, don`t leave me here
Oh now, take me there, don`t leave me here
Oh now, take me on, don`t disappear
