I've fallen further than before
Broken, left and bleeding from every pore
Haunted by what could have been
And drowning in the things I'd seen
I was helpless, tired and sickened to the core
And never knowing just what I'd find
While solitarily bound and confined
But with a look you left my heart impaled
My train of thought had been derailed
And I'd forgiven and forgotten
All I'd left behind

chorus
So let my lonely heart's love flow
And kill me gently, kill me slow
Beyond all doubt and circumstance
My heart and soul are in your hands
So if this is not forever
Let me go

Choking on apprehension and surprise
Enraptured by the sparkle in your eyes
Because I thought I saw hope glimmer there
My heart was lifted from despair
And I surrendered to affection that never dies

chorus
