be with you and talk

it was so cold on the
steep mountainside
i couldn't keep warm
when i remembered how often i lied
how when the going got tough
and you told me i wasn't loving you enough
i packed my bags and began a lonely walk
when all i had to do was be with you
and talk
something deep down inside
made me want to get up and hide
and now i look around and can't find you anywhere
i was just going to tell you that i really care
these tears on my face and my broken heart
is it possible we could have a new start?
can't there be
a single possibility?
can't there be
a fleeting chance
that our love was more than happenstance?
it was so cold
when i realized i didn't have you to hold
when the day turned to night
and i watched you turn out the light
that there would be no more tomorrow
my broken heart is heavy with sorrow
it was so cold on the
steep mountainside
i couldn't keep warm
when i remembered how often i lied
how when the going got tough
and you told me i wasn't loving you enough
i packed my bags and began a lonely walk
when all i had to do was be with you
and talk.
